These Z3/M3 based sports roadsters are simply one of the fastest and most fun to drive cars available that are still practical and affordable. The Kelly blue book values have been increasing for several years now and are at $16,945 retail and $14,975 wholesale for this car. No one should buy or sell a car based on the blue book value, but it is useful information. A buyer could expect the book values to rise further in the future due to the increasing popularity of this model. The car has a low 62k miles.

This car has a creamy soft white exterior and a soft black Nappa leather interior. There are no scratches, dents, rip, or tears anywhere. The original special roadster wheels are in excellent condition as are the Michelin Pilot Sport tires. I just completed the extensive Inspection II as required by BMW at 60k miles. It's a 5 speed manual transmission and shifts smoothly and quickly with very little clutch effort. The 240HP motor has so much torque that shifting is not often necessary when on the road. The maintenance has been kept up per the factory recommendations and needs no work currently. The power top is in great shape due to the car always being parked indoors.

This is a fast car with 0 to 60 in the low 5 second range and superb 50-50 weight balance for excellent handling. This model has many upgrades over the Z3 including stiffer but still supple suspension, bigger tires/wheels, nicer interior, stronger transmission and drivetrain, body changes to accomodate the larger tires, and the excellent M52 motor which is known for its reliability. For an amazing demonstration of this cars potential, see the you tube video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4_4BLSXeeU. In spite of being fast, the car has the modern conveniences we expect such as cruise control, four wheel ABS, front and side airbags, roll over bars, traction control, pwr door locks, pwr steering/brakes, full power & heated seats, heavy duty heater and A/C, full gauge set, power top, etc. I replaced the factory radio with a high-end Kenwood with satellite radio, blue-tooth, and I-pod connection. The car also has the full factory tool kit as well as the European complete medical emegency kit. Other than the Kenwood radio, the car is completely original. The gas mileage good for a performance car. I get 17 to 19 mpg around town and mid to high 20's on the road. Premium is required for this motor.

The VIN is WBSCK9330XLC88639 for viewing the clean CarFax report and I have a clear title. I'm selling because we moved last year and went from a 4-car garage to a 2-car garage in a HOA where we're required to put our cars in the garage and I have too many cars to fit. This is a very nice deal --- a mint, low mileage collectible car with all the maintenance and offered at below wholesale. Call Harvey if you're seriously interested.
