BMW Z8 - Anyone have first-hand knowledge?

[djomlas]

i like the way that car looks, but for what you get for that kinda money, (if i was considering spending that much dough), i would not even put that car on my list at all...

but damn Jim, tell that guy to come here to chicago so we can swap cars for a weekend lol

I just have to repeat two things I've said before:

1. I didn't find the Z8 body appealing but I always gain a new appreciation for a car when I see it nicely detailed in black:

But I still think the Boxster looks better, more classic, and will age better.

2. What TF is the tach doing a yard to the right of the driver?
