Seller Description

1998 M Roadster (Z3M) Manual/5 Speed, 132k mi

Very rare car, silver with black top and black leather interior

The Good
Michelin Pilot Sport a/s plus tires (widely considered the best all season tires available) with about 12k mi on them
Four new Bilstein HD struts. They are only slightly stiffer than stock and maintain stock ride height.
New tie rods
New sway bar bushings
New flex disc
New heater control valve
New secondary air pump
New idler pulley bearing

The Bad
The gauge cluster works intermittently. When below about 75 degrees the gauges except speedo do not work, and speedo is 10 mph off. When above 75 degrees everything works fine. I have been driving the car daily for a year and with this issue and it has not really been a problem. Used clusters are available on ebay and I'm bidding on one right now. Price will increase if this is corrected before sale.

Small dent on drivers side rear wheel well. Can be seen in pictures. Could easily and cheaply be knocked out by paintless dent repair company.

Reason for Selling
I LOVE this car, but I am 6 foot 230lbs which is right at its limit of comfort. I just heard of an 1998 M3 coupe for sale locally which will fit me a bit better. If the M3 sells first I will take my car off the market so act quickly.

Please email or call after 5 on weekdays 404-seven six nine-6487. Serious buyers only. I will be out of town on business 7/30 - 8/3 so it might take me longer than normal to reply.

My Comments

Sold 8/28/12 - Listing deleted. Looks like it sold.

8/6/12 Update - Price reduced to $8,800 from $9,490 and added a few new photos.

It's had a lot of good recent maintenance done to it. The mileage is high, but it should be good to go for a long time in the future. The instrument cluster is a concern and will need to be replace. I think it's price pretty well.
