Z3

The Z3 is a shrewd execution. At first glance, it packs BMW-style driving enjoyment in a genuine sports-car package at a price that's within stretching distance of many budgets. The Z3 is a fun flier. Everything about it is exactly what you'd expect of BMW - except the price.

The stuff dreams are made of... Is there a driver who hasn't, at some point in life, dreamt of owning a sexy drop-top two-seater and breezing through life as free as the air? As soon as the exciting BMW Z3 roadster appeared, enthusiasts deluged BMW dealers with orders. Beautifully proportioned, the Z3 roadster's low-slug stance projects - and delivers - sure-footed agility. And the BMW Z3 roadster 2.8, with its sleek style and thrilling performance, is in a class all its own.

The Z3 take automotive fun to a loftier plane... where driver and car interact in perfect harmony. There's an instant sense that this car was designed just for you. The driver-oriented cockpit feels right at home. Turn the ignition: the torquey 2.8-liter 6-cylinder engine is quick off the mark, with an undeniable eagerness to soar through the rev band. Hit the road: the Z3's responsive steering and agile suspension communicate with the pavement and the driver so seamlessly, you'll wonder if you're extensions of each other. This contemporary classic is one of the most solid open-air cars around today, boasting cutting-edge BMW engineering and safety technologies that make it a modern marvel.

The Z3 roadster provides an express route to sensuous pleasures... artfully blending past and present BMW endows con temporary features with a classic appeal. Slip into the lush leather bucket seats of the Z3 2.8 and just feel your stress evaporate. Revel in the panoramic view overhead; become enveloped in the 120-watt,* six-speaker sound system; feel freedom with the wind in your hair. As you sprint toward the horizon, you're aware of a special sense of well-being. An escape from the ordinary. Enjoy the crisp efficiency of the classic cockpit. Faithful to BMW's ergonomic principles of design, switches and controls are logically grouped to enhance your quick reflexes and control. Life may be an adventure, but one this is for certain: in the Z3 2.8, time will fly... but in First Class style.

Whatever the season, whatever the reason… this is a travelling companion with timeless style. Not simply a fair-weather friend, the roadster is a delight to drive even in wet weather. It’s easy to raise or lower the retractable top – simply release the latches and fold it down. A molded, soft cover snaps over the retracted top for a sleek line. And even with the top down, the amount of trunk space remains the same. There are many thoughtful details throughout the interior – such as a large, drop-down glovebox and a roomy, lockable compartment behind the seats, a center console with coin – and cupholders, and a built-in tool kit in the trunk. And you can tailor the roadster to reflect your personal taste with BMW Accessories and Options. Add travel convenience with a rear deck luggage rack and special fitted case, BMW cellular telephone and CD player. After all, in a BMW, getting there is the real fun… so make your car environment the best it can be.
