The BMW Z3 is one of the prolific Bavarian automaker’s smallest models in contemporary years. Made between 1995 and 2002, it even got an outing as a Bond car. Yes, the famous British superspy drove a BMW Z3 in 1995’s “Goldeneye”. However, while the Z3 wasn’t highly lauded at the time, it has gained a following over the years. Its classic front-engine rear-wheel-drive sports car formula, open-topped design and relatively light weight when compared to more modern BMWs makes it ideal for a B-road blast. That’s why this particular 1998 BMW Z3 is interesting, as it’s got a zesty straight six engine and a manual gearbox too. Moreover, it packs under 25,000 miles on the odometer. We’re told that all servicing is up to date, and that the car is all original, save for its radio.
This 1998 BMW Z3 is a black on black affair. Its shiny black paintwork is ably complemented by the black power-operated convertible top that protects the driver and passenger from the elements. Of course, as you’ll note from our photos, the car was clearly designed to be driven top-down. Then, you can really see the compact dimensions of the Z3, which measure in at just 158.5 inches long, 66.6 inches wide, and under 52 inches tall. It’s probably one of the last properly compact roadsters you can find with modern creature comforts, but less than thirty years old. The tan interior of this 1998 BMW Z3 is classic Nineties BMW. You’ve got features such as air conditioning, power windows, power mirrors and heated seats. The OEM radio has been replaced by an Alpine aftermarket unit. There’s also a smattering of wood trim around the dashboard and center console. As for cargo, there’s a small trunk in the rear of the car that can accommodate a few soft travelling bags with some smart packing.
This 1998 BMW Z3 features a 2.8L naturally aspirated in-line six. The engine’s factory power figures were quoted as 189hp and 203lb-ft. A pleasing five-speed manual gearbox channels power to the rear wheels, making this car an absolute treat for keen drivers.

Two-seater sports cars have always had an allure that few other designs fail to achieve. Hailing from Bavaria in Germany, BMW has dominated the sports car segment. Their foray into the two-seater sports car was initially in 1936 with their BMW 328. A few decades later, BMW introduced the BMW Z3 in 1995, which was a successor to the BMW Z1. The Z3 was produced from 1995 to 2002 and acquired multiple awards for its design and performance. BMW sold a good number of Z3s, with a part of the sales due to it being featured in James Bond GoldenEye. Fun fact: BMW also released a James Bond Edition of the car. However, much rarer and more sought after was the Z3 M Coupe. The M Coupe, affectionately known as the "Clown Shoe," is a classic shooting brake design, with a huge amount of cool points for its unique approach. Up for the taking, this 1999 BMW M Coupe is in excellent condition, with just 60,100 miles on the odometer.
Examples of '90s and '00s BMWs are all the rage in the modern classic car scene, from the legendary M range of cars to the less appreciated motors; their appeal lies strong and is best captured with this lovely 1998 BMW Z3 Convertible we have today. With a reported 29,000 miles on the clock, the current owner reports that the low mileage is all original. This modern classic is up for sale by its original owner and is an example that is lovingly taken care of and looking forward to livening up its new custodians' weekend drives.
The BMW M6 is the all-singing, all-dancing high-performance variant of BMW’s 6-Series. The 6-Series is a grand tourer that first appeared in 1983. Then, it disappeared in 1989 before re-appearing in 2011. By 2012, the F-Series was introduced with three body styles. Buyers could choose between a four-door Gran Coupe, a two-door coupe, or a two-door convertible. This 2015 BMW M6 Convertible is of the latter, as you may glean from its full name. It’s a powerful, turbo-V8-powered drop-top with around 28,000 miles on the clock. It’s also got the Executive Package, Competition Package, and Driver Assistance Package boxes ticked.
