The Attractions
Considered by many to be one of the most innovative and significant BMWs of the new millennium, the Z3 was the first BMW by revolutionary designer Chris Bangle and was the first BMW produced in the United States, at the new Spartanburg plant in North Carolina. It was also, quite simply, an excellent sports car. Partially inspired by the MX-5, these roadsters were fast and fun with unmistakable styling.
This example, with its dynamic, elegant and attractive lines, comes from Italy. The white paint and black leather interior are in excellent shape and the car is reportedly in perfect condition. If you are looking for a modern, solid and reliable classic, congratulations: your next car is waiting for you!
