The Z3 is a classic roadster. I bought one in 1998 with a 2.8 6 cylinder engine and loved it. Living North, I used it sparingly. I had less than 20,000 miles after 5 years. Now having moved to Florida the last few years, I am ready for another open top car. Because of my love for the Z3, I am looking for another. Since they longer make the Z3, I will look for a low mileage used one. |

Fun In A Small Package — Like most everything now that I have it "fixed" up. Fun to drive. Negative: Too easy to go too fast. Gets compliments almost every time out. Takes curves like it's on a rail. Have had minimal mechanical problems and those were too-be-expected maintenance for a car of this age and miles (~90K). Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Looks sharp. Gets compliments. Cons: interior quality |

Fun Ride & Head Turner! — Great combination of sport and luxury all rolled into one! Unique leather interior. Has a typical stiff sport suspension, but still manages to deliver a smooth ride. Manual convertible top is easy to use. Fun to drive, especially with the top down! Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: Sleek & stylish Cons: Needs more ponies & power convertible top |

31 Mpg On 89 Octane Fuel — Good gas mileage from a sporty ride. Our Z3 has been in two minor accidents and I was pleased that it can take a beating and holds up so well. Its ability to go through corners like a go-cart puts a smile on my face on a twisty road. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: Fun to drive, especially with the top down. Built like a tank compared to other small sports cars. Cons: Seat is uncomfortable on long trips |

Great Roadster — This car is powerful and fun to drive. I've found that it can be expensive to maintain if you have the servicing done at a BMW dealership. I prefer to do my own maintenance and the parts for this car are not too expensive. Pros: Great looking and powerful roadster. Cons: None that I can think of right now. |

This Is The Car Bmw Was Talking About When They Say The Ultimate Driving Exerience — Fun factor is through the roof! After i put aftermarket wheels and tires there is no corner this car cant handle. The cost to maintain is kinda high though, I had a fog light ggo out and it cost $40 to ship from germany not to mention the cost of the light. Fuel econmony isnt as bad as you would think, it still gets 28 MPG as long as you keep your foot out of it. ONe downfall is the fact that it requires premium fuel. Primary Use: Commuting to work Pros: The fun factor Cons: cost of maintenance |

Fun Autocrossing Car — FUN car to drive, with the right upgrades, no body roll, perfect amount of power with a turbo 2.8 i6, get one and make it your project car, make sure t have some money for it, took me a while to get my parts together but sooo worth it Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: style and performance Cons: space, but i dont mind |
