Weasel will become famous soon enough
Ah, I had forgot about pelican parts... That is about the same as my price through dealer with employee discount and all. So about $400 for a full set of OE for me, or $600 for bavauto "performance" coils. With how tight the operating parameters are on these things I think I'll likely just stay with OE. The adaptations would likely compensate for any spark difference somehow anyways.

I got my Z4 Bosch coils at Rockauto.com for about $33. Since the OE coils gave me problems after only 30K, I figure the Bosch can't be much worse.
