Must be but at that sort of price your in E89 territory and there's no way on earth I'd be puting over £10k in to a Z3 as much as I like them

I must admit I was quite surprised when I read that article yesterday.

Maybe it's being driven by the crazy level of Z3M prices?

I have heard they are destined to be the next classic although I also heard the 4 cylinder models aren't worth much at all, it has to be the facelift 6 cylinder engine models in near concourse condition. I tried to buy a 2.8 Z3 before ending up with the Z4 but they kept to going up in price almost on a daily basis and sold almost immediately as I kept looking so I gave up and settled for the Z4 - although no complaints now.

The Z3 was a bond car. 8) :thumbsup: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder :wink: and old sports cars generally become minor classics what ever, as they become rarer with time. :thumbsup: So no surprise at all. They are also easier to work on as few electronics. :thumbsup:

None of which makes up for handling like an ox cart. :evil: :P

I’ve had a z3 2.8 whilst it is pretty car, you sit on the seats were as on a Z4 e85 3.0 of which I’ve owned 2 you sit in it and feel more involved when you drive it. I took mine for a track day at Oulton park where as I wouldn’t have taken the Z3.
I am a current owner of a Z4 yet another midlife crisis car. It makes me smile when I drive it.
