I purchased a BMW Z3 M Roadster with only 35k, one owner and all documented records from BMW (they even got the car detailed by BMW every year). There were only a little over 10,000 total M roadsters sold in North America, so my search has been long going. I'm very perticular about my cars so when this pristine M came my way I had to jump on it. You guys have been great and I will miss this site. This is one of the best auto forums I've ever been involved with. HAPPY MOTORING TO YOU ALL!




What year did you pick up? I had a z coupe a few years back. I love those cars! I'd love to find an s54 vesion and a pot of gold to buy it with! They're getting up there

Meat Head, it would be interesting to get a 986 drivers perspective on the M3 and what differences and comparisons you can draw, first impressions etc.

Come back and visit us now and then to share your experiences.

I also believe you'll be looking for a Boxster again in a couple years once the novelty of owning something new and rare has worn off.

Great find, although 10000 produced really isn't all that rare.

I drove my friends z3 m roadster and doesn't drive nearly as nice as a boxster IMO.

You'll be back!
