Vehicle Description
1999 BMW Z3 Introduced in 1998, the M Coupe was the
high-performance fixed-roof version of the Z3 featuring the
venerable S52 inline-six engine and brakes from the E36 M3, an
upgraded suspension, and more aggressive bodywork. This E36/8 M
Coupe was ordered in Imola Red over a black Nappa leather interior
and is said to be one of just 201 S52-equipped examples in this
particular combination. It was first registered in North Carolina
and is now being offered at auction by its seller out of Illinois
showing approximately 45k miles on the odometer.The exterior is
finished in Imola Red (405) and features black Shadowline trim,
M-badged fender vents, M-specific bumper covers, widened rear
fenders, rounded aero mirrors, a lower rear tailgate spoiler, and
quad exhaust outlets. Detailed images are provided in the gallery
along with a clean CARFAX report. The 17" Style 40 "Roadstar"
wheels are mounted with Continental ExtremeContact tires.Inside,
this E36/8 is appointed with full black Nappa leather upholstery
extending to the upper door panels and center console. Factory
features include a leather-wrapped M-Sport steering wheel with M
tri-color stitching, heated and power-adjustable bolstered sport
seats, M-branded floor mats, M-branded door sills guards, and
chrome-trimmed instrumentation in the gauge cluster and center
stack. Driver's amenities include power windows and locks, a glass
sunroof, automatic climate control, a Harman Kardon audio system, a
BMW Business CD stereo, and a trunk-mounted CD changer.This M Coupe
is powered by a 3.2L S52 inline-six engine derived from the E36 M3,
producing up to 240 HP and 236 lb.-ft of torque. The rear wheels
are driven by a ZF 5-speed manual transmission and mechanical
limited-slip differential, allowing acceleration from 0-60 MPH in
approximately 5 seconds. The M Coupe was built with a wider front
and rear track than a standard Z3, and also received a lowered ride
height, modified front suspension geometry, firmer springs and
shock absorbers, strengthened semi-trailing arms, a reinforced
subframe, and brakes carried over from the E36 M3. The seller
