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.

Two new RWD Toyota sports cars to join FR-S?

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

Toyota as we know it could become a thing of the past. According to Australian site Car Advice, the Japanese brand known for bland cruisers like the Camry and Corolla is preparing to bring two new rear-drive cars to market that would slot above and below the Scion-badged FR-S. This is very, very good news.
Car Advice spoke to the GT86/FR-S' chief engineer, Tatsuya Tada, who claimed, "Akio Toyoda always says to me, Toyota sports car [family] should be three sports car brothers. 86 is in the middle." The oldest "brother" would be the spiritual successor to the Supra, even if it doesn't wear that name. Tada is in charge of that project, while a sub-GT86 project is being headed-up elsewhere.
Tada refused to comment on names (CA specifically mentions MR2 and Celica) for the new small car, but did say that, "Yes it is rear-wheel drive and that's Toyota's strong position - Toyota sports car must be rear-wheel drive." Perhaps the juiciest bit of information obtained from Tada's interview with Car Advice was his hinting that both new sports cars would be joint ventures, like the GT86/FR-S/Subaru BRZ triplets. Tada wouldn't say who Toyota was in bed with on the smaller model, but did mention that the Supra would be a product of the world's largest automaker's partnership with BMW.

Germany says nein to EU ban on new fossil-fuel cars from 2035

Tue, Jun 21 2022

BERLIN (Reuters) - Germany's government will not agree to European Union plans to effectively ban the sale of new cars with combustion engines from 2035, Finance Minister Christian Lindner said on Tuesday. In its bid to cut planet-warming emissions by 55% by 2030 from 1990 levels, the European Commission has proposed a 100% reduction in CO2 emissions from new cars by 2035. That means it would be impossible to sell combustion engine cars from then. European Parliament lawmakers backed the proposals this month, before negotiations with EU countries on the final law take place. Speaking at an event hosted by Germany's BDI industry association, Lindner said there would continue to be niches for combustion engines so a ban was wrong and said the government would not agree to this European legislation. Lindner, a member of the pro-business Free Democrats, which shares power with the Social Democrats and Greens, said Germany would still be a leading market for electric vehicles.

2015 BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe might be a better 3 Series sedan

Sat, 01 Feb 2014

At BMW, there really is something for everyone these days. Just take a look at the massive 3 Series/4 Series range - you can have a sedan, coupe, convertible, wagon, or funky-backed Gran Turismo. And now, with the introduction of the 2015 4 Series Gran Coupe, you can have another seda... err, hatchback, actually. But perhaps, a better one.
Compared to the 3 Series sedan, the 4 Series Gran Coupe is both longer and wider by about half an inch, but is shorter in overall height by an inch and a half. Honestly, to our eyes, it looks a little better than the 3 Series, too, what with its longer roofline, more sculpted rear haunches and lower stance. Full interior volume specs for the 4GC aren't available as of this writing, but we expect them to be roughly the same as the 3 Series, perhaps with a small decrease in headroom and rear legroom. Trunk space, at 17 cubic feet, matches the 3 Series sedan, and because the 4GC actually uses a hatchback design, it should be easier to access.
Powertrains are completely carryover from the rest of the 3/4 Series range. The 428i uses BMW's well-liked 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four with 240 horsepower and 255 pound-feet of torque, and the 435i is fitted with the company's 3.0-liter turbo-six, good for 300 hp and 300 lb-ft. An eight-speed automatic is the only transmission available in the US with either model and rear-wheel drive is standard. Only the 428i can be had with BMW's xDrive all-wheel-drive system, and interestingly, the 428i Gran Coupe is actually expected to be more fuel-efficient than its 3 Series sedan counterpart. The GC is estimated to return 23/35 miles per gallon city/highway, compared to the 23/33 mpg in the 328i sedan. The 435i Gran Coupe should achieve the same 22/32 mpg ratings as the 335i sedan.
