This 2.8 model is by far the best overall engine - I've driven one and it felt as fast as my current 3.0SE - a bit less refined but as a sports car may be this is a good thing. As regards price it all depends on originality of condition , service history etc. My research showed that there were common rust issues with boot lid etc and strange corrosion issues around the wing mirrors - your's looks the biz in the picture - if this is backed up by condition , history and not owned previously by 15 owners then someone who wants a 2.8 Z3 should be prepared to part with £5k for a top car.

Only manual hood (but lined as facelift car) and some slight paint bubbling starting on the sills. Unless prices are starting to go up due to classic status (which the car does deserve imho) then £4.5k might be a little optimistic. I could have got more for my car but I have always been the same when selling cars - I'd rather drop the price by a couple of hundred quid and sell to the first viewer than clart on for weeks trying to squeeze the best price out of someone.
GLWTS anyway mate they are great looking cars with a cool retro theme and a very engaging drive too (I found my Z4 a bit too comfortable, quiet and 'wallowy' at first having come from the Z3!).
