Kind of a shame an M car has gone virtually unused for 15 years...

Nice find. These have a love/hate from a lot of people and the S52 Engine isn't the top choice but it is truly a 1 of 1.

Great car either way. My Son-in-Law has a 2000 M Roadster and that car is a blast to drive.

No S54, no care.

I was thinking the same exact thing Justin!

the 5spd S54 01 version are an oddball one!

This.

Sure, EAG will be interested, but at that asking price? Highly unlikely for an S52 car. But I LOVE the Evergreen/Evergreen, and the fact that it's a sunroof-delete car is HUGE. VERY rare on Z3MC's and highly desirable. And 1 of 1 in this configuration. But the price says "S54" and a peek under the hood says "nein!".

I'm wrestling with the idea of trading my Z4MC for a Z3MC. I'd have to get an S54 car and it would have to be in primo condition, so I'm looking at $40k. Best I could do for my Z4MC is about $30k, so I'd have to dig up $10k from someplace. A few months ago it was E39 M5 that had me thinking along these lines, so this too probably shall pass.

Oh i agree, if i bought one it would HAVE to house an s54, still a cool car though

i like it. the S52 is still a great motor.

plus...... all of that pristine M-ness and it's kind of a mini-Touring also. i've always loved these.

some day...

I am definitely along the "meh" lines of thinking. I like neither the color nor engine.

They only way I could live with owning a car so unique is if the engine wasn't a hunk garbage compared to the ROW market. The damn US emissions regulations kept us from having the glorious S50B32...so we got a consolation prize. Like a trophy for last place in a soccer tournament. :facepalm
