Welcome to RWD ownership. Great when it's dry and warm and a bit daunting when it isn't.

People do think they have something special if their car is RWD, no matter what, i once saw a girl boasting about her smart car being rwd so a proper car

in fact your z4 has less power and a shit load less torque than my 330d did. Can only mean you're a terrible driver, sorry to say.

If you say so, Barnes.

Probably had an electric supercharger on it I bet.

Tell me all about how it did 0-60 in under 6 secs.

My BMW isn't the first rwd car Iv had, it's the 5th bmw Iv had and Iv also had a fair few 200sxs aswell not to mention all the rwd cars I used to drive st my old place of work. I don't think I'm a God for owning a rwd car :/ was just merely commenting on it being a bit sketchy on black ice. mines also been mapped, unless you've owned one or driven one I don't think people can comment on how well a mapped 3.0d goes, mines got insane amounts of torque.

RWD diesels don't count imo, not even going over 5000rpm, Anyone can control torque at 2000rpm, bhp is what you need to be controlling at 6500rpm+
