For sale is a 1996 BMW Z3 1.9. This is an all original car that I purchased for my wife as a fun second car. I purchased the car from the last owner who was a 72 year old gentleman who also used it as a fun second car for nice sunny days here in Florida. My wife ended up never driving the car much as life gets busy with work and kids, so it is not really being driven very often. As you can see from my driveway we do not have a lot of extra room and our garage is full as well. I’m a life-long car nut and have owned many BMWs (2002s, 3.0csl, M3, M6) and Porsches (911) over the years and have always appreciated the handling of BMWs. But, we simply do not have the space in the garage nor the desire to let this car sit out in the weather at length, so we have decided to sell the car and let someone else enjoy her. The car is in good condition and appears all original in paint and body. The paint is remarkably nice and original with ZERO RUST. This car is nearly 20 years old but it’s obvious that is has been well cared for. The elderly gentleman that I purchased the car from reported that the top end of the engine was refreshed about ten thousand miles ago and also had a new clutch put in at that time as well. The interior, while showing some signs of wear on the seats is on overall good condition with no cracks or sun damage to the dashboard. The engine runs great and is very smooth, as is the typical buttery smooth BMW transmission. The car needs nothing mechanical to my knowledge and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. The wheels are the original alloy wheels with little to no marks on them. The top operates up and down easily and is in good condition with no tears etc. the electric windows and seats all work as well. The A/C blows cold air for those days when it is driven top up. In summary, this Z3 would make a great second or third car for someone who wants to enjoy a roadster for nice weekend drives to the beach etc. It is in my opinion an extremely fun car for very little money and will be very inexpensive to maintain. Please do not bid unless you are ready for your bid to be the purchase amount as my reserve is super low. Low cost open truck shipping can be easily found and I am willing to be available to the best of my ability to meet your shipper. I do require the deposit within 24 hours and full payment in cleared funds must be received by me before pickup. I am a middle age professional so I am not a dealer, just a car hobbyist, but have had been ripped off with a fraudulent cashier’s check for a motorcycle sale last year, so I’m careful these days . Also, I reserve the right to end auction at anytime as the car is also for sale locally. Thank you and please feel free to email with any questions and I will do my best to return your email in a timely manner, however, I travel extensively with my work. |

10 most memorable cars and SUVs of 2019
Tue, Dec 24 2019It's no surprise that a car reviewer will drive a large number of cars over the course of a year. Indeed, when the clock strikes midnight on Dec 31, I will have driven 75 new cars, trucks and SUV this year (and one old Peugeot) over the course of weekly evaluation loans and first drive events. That sure seems like a lot. Some definitely got more attention than others, and some came and went without leaving much of an impression – I completely forgot I drove a Kia Forte. Yet in the spirit of this day, I thought I'd pick the 10 that I would love to see under the Christmas tree tomorrow morning. You know, just in case you were looking to get me something. I'll also throw in a couple disappointments that were memorable for the wrong reasons. They'd get sent back to the store on Boxing Day. Lexus LC 500 Pictured below and resplendent in its Flare Yellow metallic paint, the car that would reach highest on my list is the divine Lexus LC 500. As a devout lover of GT cars, the LC ticks all the boxes. Muscular and characterful engine? V8, check. Beautifully made and memorable interior? It's gorgeous, to hell with Remote Touch. Check. Comfortable and reasonably practical? Superb seats and, uh, yeah. Makes me want to stand there and stare at it? You bet. Though I long figured my heart would say LC but my head "Porsche 911," after this go-around, that's no longer the case. LC, pretty please. 2020-lexus-lc500-f34-2 View 19 Photos Polestar 1 I actually feel lucky that I got to drive the Polestar 1. Only 150 will be produced each year, and it's a far more special thing than it would initially appear. And that's despite initially appearing to be a beautiful, classic two-door GT car with a roof so rakish it's only possible because it's made of carbon fiber. That itÂ’s a massively powerful plug-in hybrid with more all-electric range than any other PHEV is a thick dollop of whipped cream on a slice of Toscakaka. You know, Swedish dessert, Swedish car. Fine, I'll stick to Ikea references. Polestar1_Launch_SanFrancisco-0014 View 44 Photos Volvo V60 Cross Country Speaking of Sweden, did I drive this car off the road there? Sure did! And despite this, the V60 Cross Country scratches that certain wagon itch and looks sensational to boot. I wish it were available with the T8 plug-in hybrid powertrain, but it's best not to get greedy at Christmas.
30th Anniversary BMW M5 information leaks out
Mon, 05 May 2014BMW hasn't kept its 30th Anniversary M5 a very big secret. It even hinted that "a surprise" was coming while celebrating its Autobahn-storming sedan's 30th birthday. However, what exactly was on the way has been a mystery... until now. The folks over at Bimmerpost have found some leaked details about the new model, and it's definitely more than just some badges special paint.
The biggest upgrade for the M5 is that power allegedly increases to 592 horsepower (600PS) and 516 pound-feet of torque (700 Newton-meters). That is a 32-hp and 14-lb-ft increase over the standard M5 and 17 ponies more than models with the Competition Package. The forum claims that all of the cars come with a dual-clutch gearbox, even in the US.
Styling also sees an upgrade with BMW Individual Frozen Dark Silver Metallic exterior paint, special 20-inch wheels, dark chrome trim and 30th Anniversary badges. The interior mixes Merino leather and Alcantara upholstery with dark aluminum trim and more celebratory badges.
10 automakers sued over keyless ignitions
Thu, Aug 27 2015Keyless ignition has rapidly proliferated throughout the auto industry to become a fairly normal feature on new cars. It's supposed to offer the convenience of keeping the fob in your pocket and just pressing a button to drive away. However, ten major automakers are now being sued in US District Court over claims that the system is dangerous, Reuters reports. The suit alleges that people are forgetting to shut off the engine, and the lack of an idle timer is the cause for 13 deaths by carbon monoxide poisoning and multiple injuries. The suit currently includes 28 plaintiffs, according to Reuters, but the lawyers are asking for class-action status to potentially add many more. The case goes after a major swath of the industry, including BMW, Daimler, FCA, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Toyota, and Volkswagen, plus their related brands like Acura, Infiniti, Mini, and Lexus. In all, over five million vehicles are affected. The assertion here is that people walk away from their vehicle without shutting it off because they believe the engine shuts off automatically. If parked in a garage, carbon monoxide can build up, leading to poisoning. The lawyers claim automakers know this is a problem and also cite 27 complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration about the issue, according to Reuters. The plaintiffs are asking for an automatic shut-off and damages from the companies. These concerns have come up before, though. Toyota previously faced a lawsuit over a carbon monoxide death after a woman accidentally left her Lexus running. Also earlier this year, GM recalled 64,186 examples of the 2011-2013 Chevrolet Volt because owners weren't shutting them off. The problem resulted in two injuries, and the company released a software update to limit the idling time.
