A Small blemish in the driver seat leather, passenger window switch was replaced at some point and sits slightly higher that the console itself.

Lower running edge of front spoiler scuffed slightly (as most are)"

You are bidding and looking at a 1999 BMW Z3 Roadster in Good Condition.  It was recently purchased and moved from Florida to Illinois (Chicagoland Area).  I have a Clean Florida Title in hand, which I will simply sign over to the new owner/buyer and the CAR FAX on the vehicle is clean with ONE OWNER previously ( I will look and see if I can cut and paste it into the posting so no one has to pay for it. 

I will answer the question that everyone is thinking immediately to dispell any fears or questions.  YES, I bought the car in May, YES, I am looking to sell it now.  After driving it for the last month (I was gone on vacation for about 15 days in June) It is quite evident that it is just impractical for me personally.  The car is a absolute blast to drive, it is small, compact and FAST.  It sticks to the road like glue and I look damn good in it with the convertible down it is a great experience on a beautiful night to drive in the city and out on the open highway. I bought it because after giving my daughter my Santa Fe, I wanted something to drive myself - after 17 years of BS cars.  However, in the end I have realized that this car is just plain not going to work for me and I am not going to pay to store it in the winter and buy another car to drive through the Chicago winters............so there you have it.  There is NOT A THING WRONG WITH THE CAR.  It is simply just not a fit for me as much as I wanted it to be.

That being said please take a look at the car and the pics if you are interested.  I listed the issues as far as defects, scratches, blemishes etc....there are some (interior wise) but they are not major items.  As a matter of fact I initially looked into the parts to replace worn storage bins and a few trim pieces that I thought I would just tidy up and I think my total for the interior was a few hundred bucks and it was all things you can do yourself, nothing major  mostly cosmetic for myself personally.  The car is in great shape for its age and has been well taken care of.  The engine is smooth, shifts smooth and is fast.  There are NO leaks whatsoever and the engine is clean and maintained.

You will not be disappointed in this Z3 (that is what the guy from Florida told me and I am saying the same to YOU as buyers/Bidders)  He was right.  It is a great car and well priced for the mileage and condition. It is also a popular color scheme Silver on Black.  This Z3 has a Kelly Blue Book Value of $10,500.00.  I just merely want to get me money/investment out of it (nothing more - nothing less).  So it will be a great buy for someone.

If you have any questions and/or want more pics or specific pics of something please E-Mail me and ask.  I will get it done ASAP.  PLEASE ASK BEFORE YOU BID

******PLEASE ONLY PLACE A BID OR MAKE AN OFFER IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS BUYER ******
 
Please take note that the vehicle is also being advertised locally.  in the event that the car sells locally I reserve the right to end the auction early without prior notice.

BMW planning Chinese recall for engine part issue [w/video]

Mon, 17 Mar 2014

After receiving an unspecified number of complaints in China, BMW has reportedly started a "full investigation" into what may be a defective part in its VANOS engine control system. BMW said via a Chinese blog that it would file a recall application with the the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine in China.
BMW has not yet announced how many vehicles will be recalled, or which models the potential recall might cover. We're also curious as to whether the VANOS issue could extend into markets outside of China.
We've placed a call with BMW in the United States, and will update this post as soon as we hear back. Stay tuned for more, and if you're curious about what VANOS is and how it works, scroll down below for a video animation.

BMW 3 Series eDrive plug-in hybrid spotted in development

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

BMW has shown its commitment to the development of hybrid and electric powertrains in recent years, with vehicles in its ActiveHybrid range, electrics like its BMW ActiveE and range-extended EVs like the i3 and i8. Plug-in hybrid-electric vehicles are clearly top-of-mind for the German automaker. We saw spy shots of the PHEV BMW X5 eDrive prototypes about a year ago, and now our shooters have come through with a 3 Series-bodied version of the technology, as well.
In addition to the obvious "Hybrid Test Vehicle" designation you see on the bodysides of this 3er, we also note that a second 'fuel cap' - presumably hiding the electric charge point - is in evidence. It's a fairly safe assumption that this 3 Series is making use of the same turbocharged four-cylinder engine and electric motor configuration that the X5 eDrive used. In the case of the X5, that meant a top electric-only speed of 75 miles per hour, with a range of just under 20 miles, and 0-62 mph in under 7 seconds. With considerably lighter, compact sedan bodywork clothing the PHEV drivetrain, we'd guess that the 3 Series eDrive could improve on each of those numbers.

BMW 1 Series GT spied in 7-seat trim

Mon, 20 May 2013

As BMW prepares to introduce its first-ever front-wheel drive car, the upcoming 1 Series GT, it looks like there will be at least two versions of the car. A conventional-looking hatchback was spotted testing late last year, but now we see an extended-length version in order to accommodate a third row of seats.
Judging by these spy shots, this 1 Series GT prototype has received an extended wheelbase, larger rear doors and more upright D-pillars compared to our previous spy shots (show in the gallery below) all with the aim of creating additional passenger and cargo space. Like the smaller 1 Series GT, this longer model would likely carry over the same powertrain options, which are expected to consist of three- and four-cylinder engines, a hybrid system and the choice of front- or all-wheel drive. The 1 Series GT could make its debut this fall at the Frankfurt Motor Show, but we might have to wait until next year to see the people mover.
