Don't have too much to pass along today, save for the fact that Auto Motor und Sport magazine has recently released a number of new photos on the much-awaited Z4M Coupe.  If you've not been following these developments separately, this might be a good time to take a look at Munich's impending Cayman slayer. 

As I've said before in my IAA review, this car has some very real potential in my view, and it will be interesting to see (a) the price point for the new machine, and (b) what the ///M Division has managed to accomplish with the standard Z4's rather unremarkable stock suspension.  Given that Alpina has already delivered a competent variant of that machine in their Roadster S, I'm actually quite optimistic about what we're likely to see when the Z4M Coupe hits the streets.

In other news, I recently agreed to conduct a comprehensive product review of the Royal F1 SMG Paddles, so we'll likely be working that into a future dicussion here as well.  Objectivity should be no problem, as I'm perfectly happy with the factory solution, and wasn't looking to make the change prior to being contacted about this.  As such, these parts will have to be pretty impressive to warrant a recommendation from me; especially given the high price of admission.  More to come on this in the New Year.
