FYI, I did make fun of the Z4. But we rented the same car on Turo for a trip to Sedona, and it was an absolute riot. It's a pretty perfect GT car. Soft enough to be comfortable, but stiff enough to enjoy curvy roads without the fear of sudden, catastrophic loss of control. And it can easily hold 1 suitcase.
Eh, who cares?
I get a lot of crap about the Z4, but it's all in jest! I'd still have my Mustang GT, but the seats were bad for my back. BMW has much better seats for me, and the Z4 is a blast! Of course, in keeping with the topic, I had to add a plugin tuner for some extra boost and more power!
So.... where do you sit to drive that table?1000whp daily and I use most all of it. It takes a lot of parts to make it all work though. There's compromises along the way too. Decide how you really want to use the car and then decide how much time, energy and money you want to spend to get it there.
There's never to much in my opinion. Ever.
That's why I have a Nitrous Picnic table.
Incredible! That makes a lot more sense than what I had imagined.Just like this
I'd literally pay money to ride on the other side for a pass or twoJust like this
Yea, after many WOT trips on my car. I should have learned with the off road excursion cost me +$4000. I still do it. Nothing like hit in the red line 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. State Farm must be tracking me. Carry on, be safe.
Those tires on your Stang are HUGE!1000whp daily and I use most all of it. It takes a lot of parts to make it all work though. There's compromises along the way too. Decide how you really want to use the car and then decide how much time, energy and money you want to spend to get it there.

I agree on the stock Pirellis. Once they wear out, I'll look for something that bites better for the size. I thought about getting some all-season snow capable tires but couldn't find any in the size (guess none are rated for speed so they don't come up), besides I don't think I'll drive it in the winter snow anyway since they use salt here on the roads.
What size you looking for on snow tires? I run the stock size (235/50r18) Bridgestone Blizzak WS90. Michelin, Conti, Nokian all make snow tires in our size and speed rating also. There’s probably others too but those are the better ones.
Our winters thus far isn't so bad that I need the Blizzak or dedicated snow tires. I was looking for something like the Firestone Weathergrip or Bridgestone Weatherpeak that are "all-season" but are 3peak snow rated which have mileage warranties. But they don't make the size a base GT uses (at least I didn't find it listed on either the Firestone site nor on Tirerack.com. Of course, the Firestone site is useless to me anyway since Firestone just closed the last store in Utah and I don't intend to drive to Colorado just to get tires. I did find some Toyo snow tires (studless) but I have to check on the ratings. I did have Toyo studded tires when I used to live in Oregon and though it was good, it was on an Accord LXi so huge difference in power (not to mention it's FWD). Since they salt the roads here I guess I could just leave it in the garage in winter and not worry about getting winter tires for it. Besides, I kind of hate the idea of having to wash down the underchassis before parking it in the garage if I did take it out in the snow.
