Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1998 BMW Z3 M Roadster
for purchase. Better known as the M Roadster, it was produced 1998
to 2002 and then again from 2006 to 2008. All models were produced
in the Greer, South Carolina manufacturing facility, though the
complete M engine was imported from Germany. The BMW M Roadster was
designed to be the performance version of the BMW Z3, and there
were significant differences between the two variants. The body of
the M Roadster had many slight differences. These included front
and rear bumpers, gills, rear wings, boot and mirrors. Under the
skin many of the components were beefed up with many of them taken
from the E30 M3 and E36 M3 Evo including brakes and much of the
suspension. Based on the E36 platform, the Z3 Roadster was
considered the E36/7 platform. The M Roadster could run a wider
track under the flared wheel arches as well as wider wheels and
tires to try to tame the increased power. A dual exhaust system fed
each set of three cylinders to two dual tailpipes. This quad
exhaust has since become an BMW M division signature. Other changes
included adding a limited slip differential, a different gearbox
and strengthening the chassis.
This BMW M Roadster in Boston Green with black leather interior is
an awesome example of the highly lauded roadsters. Outside of the
racing stripe, this is that all-stock and low mileage example M
Roadster that enthusiasts look for. It's powered by the original
S52B32 engine 3.2L inline 6-cylinder and 5-speed manual
transmission. Yes, that's the same engine used for the M3 from 1996
to 1999. It also features air conditioning, power top, 6-disc CD
changer, heated leather seats, power windows, and much more! This
is a very fun car to drive with a responsive engine, great
handling, and a fun 5-speed. It's a car that people who love to
drive love to drive. Please call or email for more details!
