The Z3 is a beautiful classic Sports car that is gaining in value and popularity as it gets older. I have had many sports cars (mostly british) even a Miata, and this Z3 is by far the best 2 seater I have ever owned. I liked this car soo much that I used it for long trips and realized right away that the 1.9L engine is very powerful for a 4cyl. I also check my mileage with every tank and get 30-33 MPG running 65-70 MPH. My wife even got tanks of 36MPG driving 60MPH on seconday highways.
I only had one real issue with the car after buying it, the ING switch failed. The key would just turn in the switch without engaging anything. I installed a universal ING switch as a temporary solution which works just fine as long as you have the original BMW key with chip also inserted. This ING switch set up works so well that I never changed it although it can be fixed easy enough.
These Z3s are well built as you would expect from BMW and this car is still very tight and ready for use.
Buyer is responsable for pick up or shipping of car, I will pick you up at Indianapolis Airport if you want to fly in and drive the car home.
A deposit of $500 is due within 48hrs of end of aution, this can be sent by PayPal. Total payment is due within 7 days of end of aution even if you are not picking up the car immediatly. I am willing to store the car for a resonable amount of time if required, just contact me.

BMW says 80 percent of i3 plug-in EV buyers come from other brands
Sat, Jun 7 2014BMW is feeling continued good vibes from its recently launched i sub-brand of plug-in vehicles. The German automaker, which started selling its i3 battery-electric vehicle in Europe late last year, is finding better-than-expected demand for both the i3 and the i8 plug-in hybrid, Automotive News Europe says, citing an interview with BMW executive Ian Robertson. The i3 is attracting a lot of new blood, too. Robertson said about 80 percent of new i3 owners were not previously Ultimate Driving Machine loyalists, indicating the curiosity factor for the company's new plug-in models runs high, Robertson says. BMW has sold more than 3,000 i3 vehicles since debuting the model in Europe last November. In April, the company boosted daily production of the i3 from its German factory to about 100 units from 70. Read more from Robertson here. Europe's largest markets for the i3 are the UK, Germany and Norway. In the US, BMW sold 336 i3 vehicles in May, its first month of sales here. The i3 was recently rated to go 81 miles on a single charge when it has an electric engine only. When equipped with gas-powered range-extender, the car can go 72 miles on a single charge and another 78 on gas. Check here for our First Drive impressions of the i3.
BMW planning Chinese recall for engine part issue [w/video]
Mon, 17 Mar 2014After receiving an unspecified number of complaints in China, BMW has reportedly started a "full investigation" into what may be a defective part in its VANOS engine control system. BMW said via a Chinese blog that it would file a recall application with the the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine in China.
BMW has not yet announced how many vehicles will be recalled, or which models the potential recall might cover. We're also curious as to whether the VANOS issue could extend into markets outside of China.
We've placed a call with BMW in the United States, and will update this post as soon as we hear back. Stay tuned for more, and if you're curious about what VANOS is and how it works, scroll down below for a video animation.
