Congrats! I like the Z3s, even better than the later Z4s. Enjoy!!
I looked at Z4's but like you I just really enjoy the lines of the Z3 - always have - Finding a Z3 in this condition is getting difficult - but there out there - I looked on Craigs List all over the western US every day for 6 weeks when this one came up about 5 hours south of me - tom
I just got rid of my 06 325i...at 80 thousand miles it started falling apart and nickel and dimming me to death. Traded it for a 2012 Buick verano. I will add that my 2001 325i was great all the way to 140 thousand when I got rid of it for the 06...Like everything the older the better
