BMW’s compact sports car offering of the Nineties, the Z3 was made between 1996 and 2002. It slotted in as an entry-level offering, and was based on the E36 Compact’s platform. With over 297,000 units sold during its production run, the Z3 was definitely a hit. It made the BMW brand more attainable to a younger crowd who wanted something hip, funky and easy to drive. This 2000 BMW Z3 2.3 Roadster, for example, is one of 22,282 of its kind, and currently resides in Bristol, Tennessee. With just over 34,000 miles, a smooth straight six under the hood and an automatic gearbox, it's an ideal first car for anyone. The original owner’s manual is available too!
Exterior and Interior
The exterior appears in Alpine White, a non-metallic factory shade that suits the Z3’s sculpted fenders, side vents, and low-slung proportions. The car rides on the original 16-inch BMW five-spoke alloy wheels, and the black soft convertible top matches the overall look. Inside, the car features black leatherette upholstery, aluminum-look trim on the console and shift knob, and BMW’s factory Business CD stereo. The dashboard, switchgear, and interior plastics appear original, and features like power windows and power mirrors are present. The cabin retains its stock layout, including the factory automatic shifter and center console valet cups.
Engine
Under the hood is BMW’s 2.5-liter M52TU inline-six, naturally aspirated and fuel-injected, identifiable by its dual VANOS system and factory intake tract. The engine is paired with a 4-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission, sending power to the rear wheels in true BMW fashion. The engine bay shows stock configuration with no visible aftermarket components. Factory safety features such as ABS, traction control, and dual airbags are present, along with power-assisted steering and brakes. Overall, the drivetrain and mechanical systems appear consistent with a well-preserved, original-spec Z3.
