Z4M + Alternatives - Talk to me

Yeah it's looking 50/50 at the moment as the independent witness coming the other way is claiming we both overtook at the same time! If that was the case we'd never of touched and would have completed a synchronised overtake.

Firstly, sorry to hear the news - was a fantastic Elise you had

Secondly, I don't see why you were at fault at all - overtaking is a perfectly legal thing to do, and him pulling out on you without indicating (and clearly without looking) means its 100% his fault.

I know it never really works like that in the real world - but I hope you're pushing for it.

Just an alternative shout out though - not so much 'involvement' as a Boxster, but a little bit more nuts:

I drove one before deciding on the VXR8, and while more of a 'GT' style car, it was a decent steer and made a lovely noise with the roof down.

I was also going to suggest a T350, but didn't realise how much the prices had risen!
Could take a brave pill and try a Tamora?

Really? I found the Z4M rather twitchy and difficult to get the power down.

What tires was it running?

Z4M Coupe, £14k and you've got some change.

But then again, I would say that

I think the Corvette might be a good idea.

I think the T350 is a good call actually, but I would not buy one that hadn't had a full rebuild by one of the well known builders, was well serviced and had major checks done recently. They go well, sound good and are fun but not as sharp as the Elise and prone to killing small 3rd world countries.
