I bought the Z3M in December 2015 as a fun weekend car. Why am I selling it? I just had a kid and I have 2 other cars. I no longer have the time to drive or take care of it. Cosmetically, the Z3 has some scratches and scuffs, not a show car, but it’s mechanically sound. There are no weld issues with the rear sub frame on this car. See the parts that have been replaced in the history section below.
History: I was told I’m the 4th owner. I purchased the car at ~153,400 miles and she needed some work.

The Z3M is an awesome little roadster that is a blast to drive. The S52 provides plenty of power and there’s torque at every point of the RPM range. I’m asking $10,000 OBO. Come by and take it for a test drive - serious buyers only.
