Seller Description

Artic Silver Metallic over Tanin Red leather interior, 5-speed manual transmission, 1st owner has had the vehicle for 21 years; I am the 4th owner, 86,650mi from new, extensive photos including underside and maintenance history included in the Google Drive folder with clean CARFAX report, 2 keys, title in hand!

This Z3 coupe is in exceptional condition for its age. The vehicle has lived in Georgia and South Carolina until I took ownership last year. The underside of the car reflects this, with no leaks. The vehicle is located in Long Island, NY. The car is in turnkey condition, and I would not hesitate to fly out and drive it across the country, which was a memorable experience when I bought the car. My goal was to get it in shape to embark on Schuh Syndikat 2024; however, life gets in the way, and I hope to revisit with another Z3 coupe in the future. The vehicle has an OEM+ build and extensive service history. Please refer to the Google Drive link below to view the photo gallery and underside photos, along with the maintenance history under my ownership and the previous owner. An extensive modification list is included as well.

The paint is in excellent condition with no coat failure on any panel. I recently did a full body polish with an orange lake and country orange pad to bring the best out of the original paint. The vehicle is in line with wear for a car from the 90s. Refer to the photos to view a few love marks on the front/rear bumpers. The interior is in excellent condition with no rips or tears in the seats. There is no glove box sag, which plagues these cars. The tires are Continental ExtremeContact Sports 2's with around 4k miles dated for 2022. The previous owner redid the headliner in a gray Alcantara, and it looks fantastic. There are no popped subframe welds under the car or in the trunk. The original muffler was starting to rust, so I replaced it with a period-correct stainless steel Scorpion muffler made for the E36 328i retrofitted to fit the Z3. The sunroof is fully operational as well.

The only current issue on the vehicle that needs addressing is an intermittent ABS light due to the module needing to be sent out to ModuleMasters for resoldering. By using INPA I replaced two faulty ABS sensors and confirmed that all four are operational. This never bothered me as it costs them $150 to resolder and I am comfortable sometimes having the ABS light come on. The driver-side fog light is cracked, but functions, and the passenger-side front bumper side marker light has a small chip. I tried to show all the blemishes on the vehicle's panels. Let me know if you need photos/videos from specific areas to follow up.

Please reach out to me with any specific questions. This Z3 is a fantastic driver's car that cleans up nicely and has a long service history. The sale will include 2 keys, OEM floor mats + WeatherTech mats, a factory BMW technician Panasonic Toughbook running INPA and ISTA-D with the 20-pin under-the-hood connector, and a box of spare parts. Reach out to me with any reasonable offers!

We last saw this coupe for sale last July. I still love the color combo, and it's super well documented. There are a ton of photos and even more in the Google Drive link. Sad the current owner won't be bringing it to Schuh Syndikat, but the new owner should. The price seems fair ot me.
