I think we only got the Z3M Coupe. I'm not sure the 2.8 and 3.0 were sold here - I've only seen left hooker non-M coupes.

A 2.8 one would do most. I bet the 3.0 is a great car that does 80% of what the m-car can in the real world

I saw a councilled up 2.8 z3 coupe on autotrader around a year ago that had been molested to look like z3m with quad tails. I think it was up for £5k with 140k. Was RHD I am sure.

Get one now. They arnt going to get any cheaper...


I hope!

I had a 99 Z3M a good few years ago, very good car, toured all over this country and Europe until my little boy came along! Still have a e92 to keep my BM ownership up.

I had the Z3 3.0 coupe for a few years and it was an awesome car, and chalk and cheese compared to the 2.8, it got sold to make way for new baby but i would buy it back today.

its only downside was not good if you are over 6 foot the seats dont go back far enough.

Twas a bit of a hooligan car and quite prone to a bit of oversteer if you "accidentally" hit the traction button off, and for those with E30's.....you will recognise the airvents!

shame it never made UK shores but it was a good un.
