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.

BMW wants to expand DriveNow carsharing program to 25 new cities
Wed, Mar 12 2014Daimler's Car2go car-sharing service just announced that it will debut in Rome, its 26th global city. Now, BMW says it wants to expand its own carsharing program to, wait for it, 25 more cities. Coincidence? We think not. BMW is looking to bring its DriveNow carsharing program, with its Mini Coopers and 1 Series, to as many as 15 new cities in Europe as well as 10 in the US, Bloomberg News says, citing comments BMW executive Peter Schwarzenbauer made at the Geneva Motor Show last week. The service is now operational in Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne, Munich, Dusseldorf and San Francisco and serves about a quarter-million people. Of course, it's that last city, where DriveNow started operations in August 2012, that's been somewhat problematic. San Francisco has tough guidelines when it comes to where the cars can be parked, with so few public parking areas to choose from. DriveNow charges $39 for membership in San Francisco, then $12 for the first half hour of driving and 32 cents for each additional minute. DriveNow competes directly against Car2go, which charges around $25 to become a member and then 41 cents a minute to rent a Smart ForTwo.
2014 BMW 535d xDrive
Thu, 20 Feb 2014I absolutely love to travel, but man, do I hate flying. Not the act of flying itself, but air travel in general - slogging through the airport, dealing with security, fighting with delays, only to finally be crammed like cattle into a too-small airplane seat where you're offered $8 sandwiches that are half-frozen. (Okay, it's not always that bad, but still.)
So when I was tasked with attending the launch for the 2015 Subaru WRX STI in Carmel, CA, I had a choice to make. I could fly into San Francisco and find my own way down to Carmel, or I could grab a turbo-prop out of SFO and fly directly into Monterey. And since you're reading about all of this in a car review, it's pretty obvious which option I chose.
The current BMW 5 Series isn't a new car, despite receiving a couple of updates for the 2014 model year. But what is new is the 3.0-liter turbodiesel inline six-cylinder engine found underhood, borrowed from the larger X5 xDrive35d and also seen in the upcoming 740Ld xDrive. It's a honey of an engine, and here in the 5 Series, it makes for a truly first-class experience.
X1, 3 Series power BMW back into global luxury autos sales lead
Thu, 14 Mar 2013BMW managed to eke ahead of Audi for the global luxury sales crown in February. According to Bloomberg, BMW saw deliveries swell by 7 percent in February, besting the 3.2 percent jump enjoyed by Audi and giving BMW a 407-unit delivery lead over its rival last month. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, continued to falter, with the brand selling some 37,229 fewer machines than BMW, whose factories are running at full capacity to keep up with demand. Models like the X1 (shown above) enjoyed a sales increase of 40 percent in February while the company's bread-and-butter 3 Series jumped by 26 percent.
Mercedes-Benz hopes to stem its continued market share loss with the addition of the entry-level CLA sedan to its portfolio in April. The company is set to roll out an updated version of its cash-cow E-Class at the same time, and a new-generation S-Class will follow along shortly thereafter. Meanwhile, the company is increasing production to meet demand for its A and B-Class models.
