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 |

BMW-Toyota sports car heading towards Tokyo debut
Mon, 20 May 2013Earlier this year, BMW and Toyota confirmed a four-part joint venture mostly focusing on increasing improving vehicle efficiency using fuel cells, lightweight materials and better battery technology. Also tucked into the announcement was a "feasibility study" for a shared platform to underpin a future midsize "sports vehicle."
In terms of the latter, it seems that things have stepped up from the feasibility stage to the conceptual stage, as Motor Trend reports we could see a pair of new sports car concepts debut later this year in at the Tokyo Motor Show. There isn't much information about the new program, but the article suggests the sports cars could be all-wheel drive hybrids, with electric motors powering the front wheels and a gas engine powering the rear wheels. While a partnership between Toyota and BMW might not lend itself to a catchy portmanteau like "Toyobaru," here's hoping it will bear fruit that is as exciting as the ones produced by the Toyota/Subaru tie up.
BMW i8 headed to Frankfurt
Mon, 05 Aug 2013According to Edmunds, BMW will reveal its production i8 hybrid sports car at the Frankfurt Motor Show next month. The i8 is the second vehicle to come from the automaker's new "i" initiative, following the debut of the smaller i3 hatchback last month.
The BMW i8 makes its debut nearly four years after the original Vision EfficientDynamics concept bowed at the Frankfurt expo in 2009. The production car is expected to use a 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine that drives the rear wheels, coupled to an electric motor that drives the front wheels. Combined output is said to be something like 393 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque, based on our earlier reports. The i8 is also expected to be very light, with curb weight coming in somewhere around 3,125 pounds. Finally, the i8 is said to have a pure electric range of 20 miles, and should be able to hit 62 miles per hour in just under five seconds.
Other publications had the chance to ride along in the i8 (in prototype form) and came away impressed. We're hoping we'll feel the same when the car officially goes on sale sometime in early 2014. Stay tuned for more at the i8's official unveiling in just a few weeks.
BMW reveals i8 Concours d'Elegance Edition ahead of Pebble Beach
Mon, 11 Aug 2014If you want to be among the first owners in the United States of the new BMW i8, the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance will be the place to be next Saturday. That's where Gooding & Company will auction off this one-of-a-kind hybrid supercar.
The BMW i8 Concours d'Elegance Edition was previously slated to be the very first i8 in North America, but has now apparently been downgraded to the guarantee of being among the firsts. In any event, it packs a series of special touches to make it unique. For starters, it's decked out in matte grey with unique brown leather upholstery, blue accents and Pure Impulse Tera World trim, with BMW i8 logos embossed into the headrests, special treat plates and the signatures of several key BMW personnel on the rear parcel shelf.
Pending government approval, it's set to be the first vehicle in the US fitted with laser headlights, and comes equipped with a special key, Louis Vuitton luggage and a "professional edition" BMW Charging Station. Scope out all the details in the press release below and take a closer look in the gallery above.
