what enhancement to the Z is your favorite and why?

I love the center arm rest of my adds.....well that and the bluetooth and the aux and the chromed tail pipes....but probably the arm rest the best. It gives me another place to store things, and with the Z, we all know that is important.

What was your favorite add and why?

My 7 yo daughter's smile when I take her for a ride with the top down. I don't get to see her often.

On my Z4 roadster, it was my change from RFTs to Goodyear Eagle F1s, for the performance and ride improvement.

That sounds very nice.

Personally I like the addition of the strong strut tower bar. Instant change in steering feel.

Two favorite changes:
1. ditched the runflats. RE750s aren't the best, but they sure are better.
2. Zaino made a very dull, unappreciated paint job shine.

WHAT is this Zaino stuff? I have the perma plate and get it renewed at least every 6 months.

Rosie...I've never met a women who actually wanted to change the tail pipes on her car! Good on you

My favourite change...CDV delete. Free and now the clutch is much more responsive.

Actually they are chrome tips...the service manager did it no charge cause I was so fuming mad the first time I picked up my car from service, no one talked to me they just LEFT it there for me to drive off in. They'd not set the programs for the lights and locks correct nor explained the alarm they installed to me etc. He still remember me to this day. Course I did write a nice letter about his helpfulness.

I like my clutch stop...it is much easier to sift quickly now. CDV and tires come this summer so who knows after that

Of course.... let me find the "DIY" for you. It is about as difficult as changing your antenna... literally. Makes the clutch stop right after the point of engagement. I love it.
