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.

Rinspeed previews Budii concept ahead of Geneva show

Mon, Dec 8 2014

Every year Frank Rinderknecht and his team at Rinspeed come to the Geneva Motor Show with another fantastical concept car, and next year's will be no exception. Though the show may still be several months away, the Swiss outfit is already giving us a glimpse of what to expect. Rinspeed's latest project is called the Budii, and it aims to "redefine the relationship between man and machine." As you might have guessed, that means driverless technology. Specific details at this point are limited, but the design calls for an electric vehicle with an adaptable cabin featuring drive-by-wire steering wheel. That wheel can swing out of the way to the center of the dashboard or to either side, should driver or passenger (as blurred as those rigid concepts become in this case) wish to take control. Beyond that we don't know much at this point, but the image above seems to indicate it'll be based on the BMW i3. Meanwhile the long list of partners and suppliers suggest it'll feature a design by Mansory, a Harman infotainment system and a Carl F. Bucherer analog clock embedded in the dynamic dashboard. 2015 Geneva Motor Show Rinspeed exhibits "Budii" at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show: "We need to redefine the relationship between man and machine" As far as Swiss automotive visionary Frank M. Rinderknecht is concerned, the breakneck speed of technical developments forces us to redefine our relationship with the automobile. The farsighted Swiss says: "Until now, what we have primarily associated with auto mobility was freedom and individuality. And - consciously or unconsciously - we are prepared to pay a high price in many regards for these privileges. We need only look at the accident statistics." Autonomous driving undoubtedly offers the opportunity to drastically diminish some of the drawbacks of private transport. For example, the number of traffic accidents could drop worldwide. But although it will be less prone to err than humans, even the best technology will not be perfect. "That is something we will have to accept," believes the boss of Rinspeed, the Swiss automotive powerhouse of ideas.

Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year

Thu, 14 Nov 2013

Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).

Playboy reveals its 2013 Cars of the Year

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

Vaunted men's magazine Playboy knows that its readers are nearly as interested in cars as they are in the female anatomy... sorry, we thought we could write that with a straight face. Anyway, the buff-book does occasionally fill some of its spreads with sexy metal, to accent all the rest of the sexiness.
To wit, the magazine has unveiled its feature on the 2013 Cars of the Year. Without giving us much in the way of criteria for the awards, nor a clear framing of the categories ("Responsible Ride" is a particularly challenging concept, especially when you consider that the Mazdaspeed3 was the winner), Playboy has nevertheless highlighted what we assume to be it's favorite 12 or 13 (depending on how you count) cars from the 2013 model year.
Headlining the class is the Porsche 911, which Playboy writers single out for having "remarkable electronic voodoo." BMW M5 is named "Slickest Sports Sedan" though the Cadillac ATS then follows on because "we couldn't resist giving the new Caddy a shout-out." The rest of the picks are pretty conventional (save, perhaps, the Honda Fit EV as "Ace Electric"), even if the categories and methodology are fairly wonky. Cruise through or gallery for a taste or check out the full list, here. The site is safe for work, and you can legitimately (this time) say that you were reading it for the articles.
