    Z3's always feel a little weird to me just because you are sitting pretty much on top of the rear axle.

      I've done the same, no bueno.

        That helps with the "Butt Dyno".. LOL...

        The first Z3 I drove was in 2003, a 2000 2.8 Z3. It was a blast. I knew I wanted one, then I got mine last year.

          hm...
          i never looked to see how many miles were on it, but it does seem like tire width might have a little to do with it...although i still don't know if that's all of it.

          does the steering itself have anything to do with it?
          it feels like less of a turn on my steering wheel results in the same amount of movement as it does with a bigger turn on the steering wheel of the z3.
          does that make sense?

          oh well...either way, it's not a big deal. i was just curious
