The question has often been asked: is the BMW Z8 the sexiest roadster BMW ever made, if not the most sought-after BMW ever? A legend with BMW circles, the Z8 was designed under the code name "E52" in an attempt to commemorate and evoke the distinctive style of the BMW 507 that was produced from 1956 to 1959. Henrik Fisker, the proficient automotive designer behind the aesthetics of multiple Aston Martins, the electric Fiskers, and the Mustang Rocket, is responsible for the stunning exterior design of the BMW Z8 Roadster. Being one of the rarest BMWs ever made, it's naturally a highly desirable car. This 2001 BMW Z8 Roadster is currently located in Florida. It displays 31,622 miles on the odometer and has been recently serviced at 31,300 miles. Included in the sale is the manufacturer's detailed and illustrated coffee table book with leather sample bounding. Also available is the VIN tag, original window sticker, letters of origin to the original owner from BMW North America, and an original CDMA mobile phone.
Exterior and Interior
The 2001 BMW Z8 Roadster is in a league of its own, having been inspired by the graceful design of the renowned BMW 507. It features an all-aluminum monocoque spaceframe with neon exterior lighting and silver side vents with the classic BMW emblem. The exterior of our subject 2001 BMW Z8 is painted in "Jet Black" and includes both a soft and hard top to match the body color. A hardtop stand, hardtop bag, roof key, and an original Z8 vehicle cover are all included in the sale. The interior of this BMW Z8 is a tasteful mix of Crema and Black soft leather, with silver accents to enhance the look. Entertainment is provided by a six-disc CD Changer and a Harmon Kardon sound system with ten speakers. The car also comes with two keys, both with remotes and one valet key.
Engine
The similarities of the Z8 to the classic 507 lies in the engine and the drivetrain as well. This 2001 BMW Z8 Roadster gets its power from a 4.9L V8 engine that outputs 395 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. This engine is placed behind the front axle resulting in a 50/50 weight distribution that translates into better handling. It is also fitted with a 6-speed manual transmission that feeds power to the rear wheels — the perfect combination for any BMW enthusiast.
The BMW Z8 Roadster is notorious for being showcased as James Bond’s car in the film, “The World Is Not Enough”. While you may not get this 2001 model equipped with surface-to-air missiles to defend yourself from a cutting saw-equipped helicopter, these exotic icons are exactly what we strive to provide you here at Exotic Car Trader. Every element of this car was assembled by hand in Munich thanks to its limited production; only 2,543 models were made to hit the North American market, boasting the same 4.9-liter V8 engine that was shared with the legendary E39 M5. The unique styling is, of course, the main highlight of this 2001 BMW Z8, a retro tribute to the classic 507 — a car that is considered by many to be the prettiest ever made. The Z8 also saw itself as the official safety car in the 2001 season of MotoGP, making it a prominent vehicle during the early '00s and late '90s. This 2001 BMW Z8 Roadster, with a spectacular wheel upgrade, has traversed American roads for around 49,200 miles and is now waiting for you to be its new owner.
BMW's Z Series, akin to the illustrious 7 Series, has carved its own legend in the automotive realm. Tracing its spiritual lineage to the iconic BMW 507, a grand touring convertible, the Z Series made a significant mark with the BMW Z1 from 1989 to 1991. This unique offering, both in design and technology, paved the way for the subsequent Z3 and the concurrently produced Z8, a beloved creation from 1998 to 2003. Now, we beckon your attention to a pristine 2001 BMW Z8, a limited-production gem boasting a mere 18,300 miles on its distinguished odometer.
1999 saw “The World Is Not Enough” hit the silver screens, with Pierce Brosnan’s sharp looks at James Bond doing the whole ‘save the world from destruction’ thing. Bond film car aficianados will have no doubt noticed the sleek silver roadster that Bond drives in the film, before it is dramatically cut in half by a helicopter-mounted set of circular saws. That car is BMW’s Z8 which was introduced to the public in 2000, and produced for just three years. The Z8 also saw some screen time in the Jackie Chan flick ‘The Tuxedo’. If the Z8 caught your eye in either of these films, here’s a lovely 2003 BMW Z8 Roadster from Florida for sale, with just 48,000 miles on the clock. Only 5,703 Z8s were produced, with 2,543 sold in North America so you’re joining an exclusive club.
The 2010 BMW M5 is one of those cars that feels almost impossible by modern standards: a full-size four-door luxury sedan powered by a naturally aspirated V10 and sending its power to the rear wheels through a 7-speed Sequential Manual Gearbox. Showing approximately 115,170 miles, this Black Sapphire Metallic example captures everything that made the E60 M5 such an enthusiast icon. It combines genuine super-sedan performance with the comfort of Black Perforated Full Merino Leather, ventilated multi-contour front seats, soft-close doors, Head-Up Display, Comfort Access, and premium audio. Add the unmistakable 19-inch Style 166M wheels and you have a car that can blend quietly into executive traffic one moment and deliver the kind of high-revving V10 drama that few sedans before or since have ever matched.
The 2015 BMW i8 was one of the most futuristic performance cars of its era, combining exotic styling, carbon-intensive construction, and plug-in hybrid technology in a package that still looks remarkably modern today. Showing 28,371 miles, this example is finished in Sophisto Grey Metallic with Frozen Grey accents beneath a 3M white vinyl wrap with gold flake, paired with a Pure Impulse Carum Spice Grey full perforated leather interior. Its specification is especially notable for the Pure Impulse World Package, which adds distinctive interior and exterior details that give the car a more exclusive presentation. With its turbocharged three-cylinder engine, front electric motor, lithium-ion battery pack, and all-wheel-drive layout, this i8 remains a fascinating blend of sports-car design, advanced materials, and forward-thinking electrification.
The 1973 BMW 3.0 CS is one of the defining grand tourers of BMW’s classic era, combining elegant E9 coupe styling with the smooth power delivery of the company’s 3.0-liter inline-six. Showing approximately 36,319 miles, this example is finished in Polaris Silver Metallic over a Marine Blue interior and pairs its period luxury character with a 4-speed manual transmission for a more engaging driving experience. Highlights include wood interior trim, air conditioning, power windows, four-wheel disc brakes, and BMW multi-spoke alloy wheels, giving this 3.0 CS a strong balance of refinement, usability, and classic touring appeal.
