Used sports cars: BMW Z4 M and BMW Z3 M – Sports cars

Una Megan RS it will also be faster, more efficient and may not kill you as soon as the chance presents itself, but the BMW Z3 and Z4 M have a special aura that is impossible to compete with. The two Munich spiders / coupes have a lot in common: rear-wheel drive, long bonnet, manual transmission, bully character and, above all, the gem of the engine carried over from the M3.

The BMW Z3 M

Like a true enthusiast James Bond, BMW Z3 I irreparably associate this with Golden eye, which is good, because it is one of my favorite 007 agents. The Z3 is one of the oldest BMWs: sporty and elegant, it was born, in my opinion, in one of the most beautiful BMW stylistic periods. So the M is the real thing to clean while driving. The 3,2-liter M3 E36 inline-six engine produces 321 hp, more than enough to undermine the Z3's chassis. This is a car that requires handling, concentration and strong nerves; a car far removed from modern sports cars that love to be mistreated.

The first series is equipped with a self-locking rear differential, which is great for drifting, but makes driving even more "professional", especially given the fact that it lacks traction control and stability. The transmission is a five-speed manual (taken from the M3 E36) and the trim is soft calibrated to make the car's character less harsh.

For restyling in 2001, an engine is installed from BMW M3 E46 weakened to 325 hp, even if you really rarely see it on sale - only seven are officially registered.

The car is very reliable, although the roadster version may have problems with the hood. There are several copies on the secondary market worth about 30.000 euros (they overestimate a lot), all unfortunately with high mileage, but we should not be afraid. BMW Z3 M – Link1 Link 2

The BMW Z4

Among the various masterpieces that Chris Bangle given BMW, Z4 this is definitely one of the best. When I first saw her, I thought, "Wow, she's looking ten years ahead," but I had some doubts about how old she would be. Well, I would say he is aging well. There BMW Z4 M it's more rugged, stable and mature than the Z3, but no less fun. The M, in particular, retains the same bully personality without being the hot-tempered and intimidating Z3. Eliminate imperfections without affecting the dose of pleasure. This time under the hood we find the "six-cylinder in-line par excellence" or 3.243 cc M3 E46. Power is 343 hp. at 7.900 rpm, self-locking differential, gearbox - six-speed manual. There Z4M it accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 5 seconds, like the Porsche Carrera S 997. Compared to the Z3 M, the Z4 can be used with less mileage and at a lower price (it is less rare and newer). but prices will go up. Here are a couple of interesting examples. BMW Z4 M Link1 – Link2
