A couple of weeks with no Z really makes you appreciate it.
Between shuffling my X5 back and forth for repairs and our traveling to conferences and weddings and such, I hadn't driven the Z in two weeks. I had it out yesterday for a short jaunt and it was pure fun. Now I have another week away before I can drive it again. How am I going to make it through next winter????

I can't even take mine out for a short jaunt...
Mine's been in the garage up on jackstands for over 2 weeks now... I bent a rim and the stupid ass repair guy is taking is f**king sweet a*s time... It leaves me VERY annoyed.

Yeah, mine is garaged whenever there is any snow or sand on the ground so I got 3-4 months a year without driving it Makes me sad after about a week to see it just sitting there all lonely under the car cover Same for my motorcycle.

Having to drive a company car during the week, weekends are especially nice when I get to take the Z out for several errands. I find myself making excuses at night that I have to go somewhere just to drive the Z. Love the car

My E86 is a few months shy of 2 and I just turned 35K. I share miles between the Zed and a Motorcycle during the summer and they both get stored and my truck comes out in the winter so it just seems like a low number

Been three weeks here now while in China, and another 3 to go. Its this way every few weeks to months, and its sure hard to hear of all you guys getting seat time and its nothing here. Have seen only two Z4's over last years here...both in Beijing. They are rare here...our hood-top is just not practical here with dusty conditions. You see fellows out CaliforniaDusting their absolutley dust and grime covered cars--one only wonders about the paint. But I am sure missing the Z4si...and keep the posts going...they keep me sane while here. Bests all.

Still couldn't drive it today due to expected heavy thunderstorms this afternoon. They never happened. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice, so I'll be driving it then. Got the Bob Marley CD and the radar detector all set to go.

Heaven this morning. Sunny day, upper 70s, no traffic on my favorite backroad, and Bob Marley cranking on the stereo. Days like this really make me appreciate my 55-mile commute.
