THIS IS A NO RESERVE LISTING.

This is my 1996 BMW Z3 roadster convertible.  This car has only 40,402 original miles and it looks, runs and drives like a new car.  If someone told you this car was a year old with maybe 5000 miles, you'd believe it.  I believe this is the nicest condition 1996 Z3 for sale in the country.  This is quite simply a gorgeous, clean, unmolested, beautiful car.

1996 was the first year for the Z3 roadster, and it was a huge success- in fact all of the 15,000 production run was sold out before the car even made it to dealer's showrooms- often at a premium ABOVE sticker price.  Consequently, these 1996 cars were often purchased by wealthy enthusiasts who took care of and cherished the cars.  This car is just such an example. 

This car was owned by a retired couple who garaged the car from October to May each year.  This car has never been winter-driven and has never seen snow or salt since it was new.  It was a third car, for summer fun use only.

The only way to describe this car is "PRISTINE".  I am quite confident that there isn't a nicer condition 1996 Z3 for sale anywhere- it is just unbelievably clean and like a new car.

The paint is all original and it is in excellent condition.  The factory VIN stickers are present on every body panel.  This car has never been in any accidents, and has never had any paintwork or bodywork.  The car was always garaged, so the paint isn't oxidized, and the black trim and plastics are still just like new. 

The alloy wheels are spotless and look gorgeous.  The tires are nearly new Yokohamas.

The undercarriage of the car is pristine and spotless.

The convertible top is original and in superb condition.  There isn't any appreciable wear on the convertible top, and the rear window is in excellent, clean and fully transparent condition.  The factory tonneau boot is included to protect the convertible top when it is retracted.

The interior of the car shows no wear.  The leather, plastics, upholstery and vinyl are all superb and just like the car was when it was new.  The car still smells like new inside, in fact.

This car runs and drives beautifully- just like it did when it was new in 1996.  The engine, transmission, clutch, brakes, steering, etc are all working superbly.  There are no warning lights illuminated and this car needs no known mechanical work. 

It is impossible to overstate exactly how outstanding, clean and original this Z3 really is.  I feel like you could have taken one off the production line in 1996, put it away and it would look just like this car looks right now. 

I have the books and manuals for the car as well as the original window sticker.  There are two sets of keys and remotes, and the car also comes with a quality padded and fitted car cover. 

The equipment on the car is as follows:

  • 1.9L 4-cylinder engine
  • 5-speed manual transmission
  • A/C (blows cold)
  • leather power seats
  • ABS brakes
  • cruise control
  • power windows

If you have questions, please call Richard at 216 389 7100.

You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home.  Alternatively, you can have the car shipped- for a quote please call Angles Moving Autos at 530 245 0481.

Mini JCW Paceman vs. BMW M135i in family faceoff

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

Over the last year, we've had the chance to drive two of the most exciting hatchbacks in the BMW family - the BMW M135i and the Mini Paceman John Cooper Works - but Autocar has managed to get the two corporate cousins together for a head-to-head comparison. Just like our initial impressions of the Paceman JCW, Autocar has little to complain about this new 215-horsepower hatchback... until it begins to factor in the faster, better-mannered and similarly priced M135i.
Despite laying down an extra 100 hp and delivering a 0-60 time that is almost two seconds quicker, the M135i carries the same price tag of 29,535 pounds in the UK; US pricing for the Paceman starts at $36,200, while it still isn't even clear if the US will be getting the M135i. Even more surprising is the fact that the Paceman falls short of the M135i in regards to rear seat and cargo volume, and just barely squeaks out a win in the fuel economy department. Scroll down to watch the BMW versus Mini hot hatch battle.

Tesla exec calls rival EVs 'little more than appliances'

Wed, Aug 3 2016

Tesla's Vice President of Business Development Diarmuid O'Connell called the company's competition "little more than appliances" at the Center for Automotive Research's Management Briefing Seminars in Traverse City, MI yesterday. "In essence, [mainstream automakers] delivered little more than appliances," O' Connell said. "Now, appliances are useful. But they tend to be white. They tend to be unemotional." According to Automotive News, O'Connell's main critique is that vehicles like the Nissan Leaf and BMW i3 don't deliver enough performance or range to draw the attention of consumers outside of a small group. The solution, in O'Connell's mind, is more power, more range, more excitement and a lower price – that last point is particularly rich coming from an automaker whose cheapest current offering, the Model S 60, costs $66,000 – although the cheaper Model 3 is on the horizon, way out there, somewhere. But some EVs are better than none, O'Connell added. "On balance, I'm happier that [traditional automakers are] doing these cars than not," O'Connell said. "I just wish they would do them better and faster." O'Connell also used his appearance at the Management Briefing Seminars to launch a volley at the Michigan legislature, blaming its opposition to Tesla's direct-sales model for the lack of available EVs in the Wolverine State. "I think if the Michigan Legislature would allow Tesla to sell cars in Michigan, we could probably address [the lack of available electric cars]," O'Connell said. Related Video:

BMW i3 to be priced around $40,000

Mon, 06 May 2013

According to Automotive News, the BMW i3 electric hatchback will likely be priced around $40,000, or similar to that of a well-equipped 3 Series sedan, when it goes on sale later this year. This information was revealed during an interview where AN spoke to Ludwig Willisch, CEO of BMW North America. The i3 will likely qualify for a $7,500 tax credit from the US federal government, though AN reports that a BMW spokesperson could not confirm this just yet.
In addition to the all-electric i3, BMW will offer a range-extended version that uses a 0.65-liter two-cylinder motorcycle engine and auxiliary generator to charge the car's battery on the go. Automotive News says pricing for this model is still unclear, as is whether or not the range-extended i3 will be eligible for the $7,500 tax credit. Of course, buyers needing a vehicle for longer trips will be able to borrow one from the automaker.
Automotive News also reports that the majority of BMW's 338 dealers in the United States will be able to sell the i3, as well as the upcoming i8 hybrid sports car. Dealerships have until June of this year to opt out of this program, however.
