My Z3's
As a Z3 lover, I've owned a few of them in the past 10 years. Here is my history with this great BMW!




Currently owned

Number 12 - BMW Z3 3.0i Roadster
When I moved to Switzerland in 2017, I found this roadster which was the same configuration as my previous Oxford green, but with many more options (seats, wheels...). In fact, they were only separated by a few chassis numbers and were produced 2 weeks appart in August 2000! I still own this car as I write this (November 2021).

Exterior color: Oxfordgreen (430)
Interior color : Oregon/beige E36 Sandbeige (R5SN)

Some extras : ASC, heated seats, sport seats, anti roll bars, white indicators, styling 42 wheels, etc...
Mods: I only changed the original wood wheel for a beige one.

Previously owned / sold

Number 13 - BMW Z3 3.0i Coupe
A very nice Sterlinggrau coupé that I owned together with the Oxfordgreen roadster. However at some point I decided to keep only one Z3, and I chose the roadster (number 12 that I currently still own) instead of the coupé because it brings that extra enjoyment of being able to remove the roof and enjoy it with my wife.

Exterior color: Sterlinggrau (472)
Interior color : Nappa Schwarzr (Q8SW)


Some extras : DSC, heated seats, sunroof-delete, tempomat, trunk net, Harman Kardon...
Mods: Wood gear lever.

Number 11 - BMW Z3 3.0i Roadster
My first 3.0 in Oxfordgrun/beige. This is really my favorite color combination for a roadster. I bought this one in France, and I wanted to import it to Switzerland but after 6 month I found almost the exact same on in Switzerland. They had only 2 weeks of production date difference! (see number 12)

Exterior color: Oxfordgreen (430)
Interior color : Oregon/beige E36 Sandbeige (R5SN)

Some extras : Not many... Normal seats, ASC, trunk lid for extra luggage, wooden interior
Mods: I installed Bilstein B8 shocks and changed the wheels to Styling 32.

Number 8 - BMW Z3 3.0i Coupe
A very unique unit, only 1 was ever produced in sterling gray and extended beige interior (EURO/JAPAN/MEA markets). One of the best color combination in my opinion, I had it at the same time I had the 3.0 Roadster sterling / black.

Number 5 - BMW Z3 M Coupe S54
Whithout a doubt, a very exclusive unit, with the S54 engine with 325hp. A great engine and great car, but difficult to extract all its potential in Switzerland, cities, traffic jams and speed limits... Sold it because it had lots of KM, it was my only car and was not very usable in winter where I live, but I shouldn't have had as they become harder and harder to find.

Exterior color: Sapphireschwarz (475)
Interior color : Nappa black/grey (Q6TT)


Some extras : Glassroof, tempomat, radio CD RDS with Harman Kardon, trunk net, etc.
Mods: I bought it with 19" hartge black wheels that I didnt like so went back to stock. I installed also a H&R + bilstein suspension, as it had the stock one despite 138.000km!

Exterior color: Sterlinggrau (472)
Interior color : Chameleon leather Red/black (V3TL)


Some extras : Sport edition, electric hood, harmann kardon sound system, Stle 78 wheels, chrome pack interior, heated seats, DSC.

Number 3 - BMW Z3 Coupé 3.0i 231cv

My first coupe, in one the best colours available in my opinion. The Oxfordgreen is very profound, it changes with the light, very nice. I had always wanted to own a Coupe. This was my first Z3 in Switzerland.

Interior color : Black Nappa leather (Q8SW)


Some extras: Glass roof, DSC, heated seats, AC, BBS 42 wheels, trunk net, etc.
