2000 Bmw Z3 Roadster 2.3 Gray Convertible - Bond Car!!!! on 2040-cars
Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, United States
Up for sale, in time for spring and summer, is my baby James Bond convertible - classic roadster! This car has been upgraded by me in many ways, which makes it absolutely head and heels above other Z3 models you can find. The biggest and baddest upgrade is the sound. I installed Focal speakers, an 8.5 inch sub in between the seats, and a JL Audio amp in the trunk. Now you can listen to music LOUD and CLEAR while driving with the top down at 80mph on the highway! Impossible to hear music without distortion at 45 mph with the stock system.
The car is a manual transmission with a 2.5L 6 cylinder engine. Trunk space for a bag of golf clubs.....if you put your driver in the passenger seat. Runs like a beast, handles like a ballerina - simply a FUN driving machine. Especially on beach highways. Color is dark gray. I had a new clutch installed a year ago but otherwise everything is fine. A few months ago my friend drove the car and hit a parking bump which caused some slight damage to the front bumper (see pic). This is something to watch out for as it is easy to misinterpret how close to drive up to those when parking. I decided to sell as is and let the buyer fix it, however it is quite fine to drive as is. New bumpers can be found on ebay for $250, and paint shops that can match are everywhere. Other upgrades include: halo xenon headlights, mesh front grills, racing pedals, a cup holder/container/armrest, daytime running lights module, door panel arm rests, some extra chrome on the door handles, side view mirrors, and door pins, aluminum paint on the side grills, and a small carbon fiber radio antenna. I also replaced the plastic back window once. Finally, I also rewired the electronics for the powered convertible top to be conveniently on the panel close to the radio! No more contorted awkward arm movement to reach for the old button location behind the seat. Contact me with any questions! -Jeff |

Jeremy Clarkson names 10 worst cars for 2015 and 2016
Wed, Aug 24 2016When Jeremy Clarkson, outspoken automotive journalist, ex- Top Gear host, and co-host on The Grand Tour, drives a car he doesn't like he doesn't pull his punches. As Jezza harshly puts it, cars shouldn't just be a form of transportation. These 10 cars made Clarkson's "the terrible 10" list on his column in The Sunday Times for lacking imagination and not giving the journalist "the Fizz," which his list of top 10 cars did. In typical Clarkson fashion, the list is controversial. Some of the cars on Clarkson's list have received praise from other outlets, which shouldn't really come as a surprise since he usually goes against the majority's opinion. Nonetheless, there's at least one car that will catch you off guard. To get a glimpse at Clarkson's reviews and the entire list of cars, head over to his column in The Sunday Times.

BMW restores classic Mini as it revives production in Netherlands
Wed, 13 Nov 2013Mini will be kicking off production in the Netherlands, a country that hasn't built a Mini-badged machine since 1966. In honor of this event, BMW Group Classic, the team responsible for all the cars in the BMW Museum, as well as being a spare parts and restoration company in its own right, revived a classic 1959 Austin Seven. That particular car, number 983, was one of the first Minis to be built in the Netherlands.
The Netherlands' JJ Molenaar's Car Companies built 4,000 Austin Sevens and Morris Mini-Minors between 1959 and 1966, although we imagine Dutch Mini production will be much bigger when it starts up again in summer 2014. A five-person team from VDL Nedcar, the group handling production of new Minis, took to the job of restoring the diminutive British car from nose to tail.
The 34-horsepower engine and the transmission were both completely rebuilt, while the door panels were redone by hand. Help from the Mini community aided the VDL Nedcar team in finding authentic replicas or original parts where possible. All told, the new classic Mini is a striking example of what a good restoration can do to a car. The Seven was repainted in its original Farina Gray, adding to the car's sense of authenticity.
