Seller Description

Highlights

THIS… is a 2000 BMW Z3 M Roadster, finished in Imola Red with a black softtop and black interior.

  • This Z3 is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission, and the odometer displays approximately 65,500 miles.
  • The attached Carfax vehicle history report shows no accidents or mileage discrepancies in this M Roadster’s past. It also shows that this Z3 has been registered in Western states since new.
  • According to the digital window sticker provided in the gallery, notable factory equipment includes 17-inch Style 40 wheels, a limited-slip differential, a power-retractable softtop, Nappa leather upholstery, and power-adjustable and heated front seats.
  • Notable modifications reported by the seller include a Strömung cat-back exhaust, a Mason Engineering strut tower brace, VDO gauges, and an Alpine headunit.
  • Based on the Z3, the M Roadster made its debut in 1998 with a more powerful engine shared with the E36 M3, a sportier suspension system, and wider wheel arches, among other changes. It was immediately hailed as one of the best driver's cars on the market.
