1997 Z3 whaddaya think

Ok...she is on her own computer now looking at 07 retractable hard tops....like that is going to happen Marble white with a tan interior yuch

An NC is a way better choice than a Z3. My mom has a Z3 and it is a pig. Last time I was in California visiting, I found I had a lot more fun in the twisties in Dad's 2.0 Mazda3 than in mom's Z3. FYI- Retractable hard top isn't available in Marble white.

Radioactive is right. Some of the Z3s have rear subframe issues.

BTW, the price is not too bad, but I think if you keep searching I think you can find one cheaper. I think the Z3 is a very fun car and with the 6-cyl, it will be a lot of fun to drive.

I really miss that BMW I-6 torque. The 6 cyl Z3 is a pretty quick car, but the M roadster is a beast.

Why not spring for a 07 3-series? It is better than the M3 they were selling last year!

I wouldn't say it is better. It's a great car and might be just as fast in a straight line but it's a totalliy different type of car.

I agree. The '00 E46...now that's a BMW!

Repeat after me:
No Z3...no Z3...no Z3!!

Ya know what would be even better would be a Classic RX7 convertible, if you could ever find one!

Hey, I've got a buddy of mine selling his 1998 Z3 I-6 w/leather. He hasn't yet posted it anywhere, as being ForSale, but he said it was time to sell it. It's garaged and is a 3rd wheel, so not driven daily. It is a real cream Puff. PM me if you want his number.

Update: my buddies is a '98, 2.8L I-6, 80,000 miles, all sorts of accessories, Elect Windows/locks, 6CD Changer in trunk, power top, rear Window Cover, CC, Elect Seats, 5spd. He said he'd take $12,500, possibly negotiable.
