Love The Exhaust Note! What a drive. Wonder how he'd have done in an Z4M?

Using LPG is no big deal, its been used over here for years but the down side is, you will have a bloody great big gas tank some where in the back of the car, normally in the boot.

I met a guy with an LPG system in his Z3, and there was little room left once the tank was in!

The more modern trend for gas tanks now is to use a very thin tank mounted under the car or even in some cases a round flattish one one the spare wheel well. Ok, that means no spare but when was the last time you saw a Z on a space saver? Many cars don't have a spare these days just an aerosol blow up can and an electric 12v compressor. I think the resulting mpg gain would have to be very good to make it a worthwhile proposition as to cover the cost of fitting you would need to do a big mileage ( BMG take note ).

I'm sorry but I really cannot see the point of why someone would convert to LPG and stick that in the boot!!
