BEST Car I've EVER OWNED.

July 28, 2023
By Kay from Ashland, OR
Owns this car

I purchased my BMW Z-3 (6-liter engine) when it was brand new, 1998. It is the BEST car I have ever owned. (I've had Mercedes Benz, Thunderbirds, Corvettes in the past.) This baby is now 25 years old, and has 71,000 miles on it. I bought the hardtop for it, and keep it on the car all the time now. (Too much trouble to take off and put it on the rack in the garage.) Very few repairs were needed in the past, and I've had the oil changed, etc. every year, purchased new tires like the original Michelins, and kept this car garaged. I also purchased a BMW luggage rack, and a BMW hard suitcase that snaps onto the rack, because the trunk is small. I am a small woman ("ole lady now") and this car has been perfect for everything from long road trips, to maneuvering around town into tight parking spaces. It is classic black, and I STILL get compliments on it every single day!!! No, it is not for sale.

Untouchable

June 5, 2021
By Thumpr from North West, Florida
Owns this car

This is my second Z3. I love the 97-1.9 for its economy and the 98-2.8 for its get-up and go. You become one with the car and the road feeling every turn & straight away in harmony. Just relax and go... I wish I would have kept both but you can really only drive one at a time!
