Vehicle Description
This 1996 BMW Z3 Roadster is a beautifully preserved, low-mileage
example of one of the most iconic roadsters of the 1990s. With only
27,562 original miles since new, this Z3 presents in remarkably
clean condition and captures the essence of BMW's "Ultimate Driving
Machine" philosophy in a sleek, two-seat convertible form. Finished
in timeless black paint with matching black leather upholstery, it
exudes a refined yet sporty character that has aged gracefully and
continues to turn heads.
Under the hood lies a 1.9-liter inline four-cylinder engine, known
for its smooth power delivery, reliability, and balance. Paired
with a factory automatic transmission, this Z3 offers effortless
cruising whether you're navigating city streets or enjoying open
country roads with the top down. BMW engineered this car with
near-perfect weight distribution, delivering agile handling and an
engaging driving experience even in automatic form. For those who
value simplicity, fun, and comfort, this drivetrain combination
makes for an excellent choice.
The car rides on factory 16-inch Style 35 alloy wheels, a
period-correct design that adds to the Z3's classic European
styling. The black convertible soft top complements the paint and
interior perfectly, and operates smoothly for quick transitions
between open-air driving and top-up comfort. The top is tight,
secure, and free from major wear, offering solid weather protection
when needed.
Inside, the cockpit features supportive black leather bucket seats
that remain in excellent condition, showcasing the car's
low-mileage history. The driver-focused interior design includes
clearly arranged analog gauges and classic BMW switchgear, giving
the car a simple yet purposeful feel. Air conditioning is included
and functions properly, making the Z3 a pleasant companion in
warmer weather. From the leather-wrapped steering wheel to the
center console and controls, everything inside this Z3 reflects
careful ownership and pride of maintenance.
This example comes with a clean Carfax report verifying its mileage
and accident-free history, adding to its credibility as a true
collector-grade modern classic. With just over 27,000 original
miles and the desirable black-on-black color combination, it's not
easy to find first-generation Z3s in such well-kept, original
condition. The understated elegance and lightweight performance
make it the ideal car for Sunday drives, weekend getaways, or
simply enjoying the pureness of a traditional roadster.
The BMW Z3 gained global recognition when it was famously featured
as James Bond's car in the film GoldenEye, and it quickly became a
symbol of sporty luxury and top-down excitement. This 1996 model
retains all of that original charm and delivers it in a package
that is easy to maintain, reliable to drive, and increasingly
desirable in today's classic car market. Whether you're a BMW
enthusiast, a collector of 1990s icons, or simply someone looking
for a fun and stylish convertible with low miles, this Z3 is an
excellent choice ready to be enjoyed.
