Rare 1999 BMW Z3M S52 Coupe
Arctic Silver Metallic and only 77,200 miles
Unique upgraded version of the Z3 Roadster. M Power, 5 speed with hard top!
This less than 20 year old car has become an early classic that has earned a “cult-like” following. It is an unapologetic, engineer based design that bucked the moderate course, that is special in many ways. By adding the permanent hard top, the attributes of the roadster were enhanced with a much stronger and more ridged chassis that made curve carving a blast to be enjoyed by real enthusiasts. With the proven S52 M engine, the combination is a balance of power and grace.
This beautiful example is in outstanding condition mechanically and cosmetically.
Carfax shows one incident July, 2015, when a blowout caused a strike of a low median lip that damaged the rear suspension, axels, and wheels, replaced with BMW OEM parts, but had minimal impact on the body.
