Time to part with my beloved 2002 BMW Z Coupe. It is not an "m coupe" but does have the M Coupe steering wheel , suspension, and M Coupe short shift . Logo's on steering wheel and shift ****. Additions include custom drink tray between seats, upgraded stereo. BMW roof rack for bikes.

If you're reading this ad, you know how cool these cars are and what great performers --- and collectable. After all, how often do you get to own a car that was driven by James Bond? I'll post a few more pictures shortly. Or email me. Most of 'em are G-rated.

Black exterior with red leather interior. They made very very few of these. 165,000 miles.


Why the lowest price in the US for the last year of this coupe ? Drivers window stuck. Sunroof cable broke. Some small dents and scratches. Seat needs restitching. I have no time to do the restoration. My loss... My life style has changed, need to get a 4 wheel drive. Trade for your Subaru Turbo Baja mini truck?
Ok, who's brave enough to email for more pics?

odometer: 137000
paint color: green

FL. I am being told it needs a new fuel pump because its NOT currently starting. It will also need a new top and front breaks. I have had the car since 2014 and have put the last 70,000 miles on the car with no problems. I need a larger car and KKB puts the value of this car in fair condition (which I would say it is, minus the fuel pump) at 2300.00 to 3700.00$ It does have after market premium wheels on it. The car has a clean title. Please contact me by phone or text only. My name is Josh 352 292 5215 NO emails. CASH onlyP

I'm always a tad weary of for-sale ads which essentially follow the script of "This car is in perfect shape. It totally doesn't run at all, but it just needs this one very simple, cheap part which, for reasons which are not known to you, I haven't already replaced myself so that I could sell a running car instead of a non-running one."

If it's a ruse, then yes, totally agree, but if it is just a non-mech inclined owner who's backed in to a corner and is looking to sell at a discount just to get out of the situation (car stuck at tire shop), it could be a bargain. Certainly worth a look IMO.

I've been searching for one of these cars for the last decade. Has to be pre 1970. Don't wanna spend an arm and a leg. Volvo P1800. Can be non running, just need a semi decent roller. I have enough space to stash it for that someday project (like everything else I have).
Please help me find this.
Also pre '70 Triumph Spitfire, same tale.

There's a few on CL around the midwest but I'm guessing $12K and up is what you'd consider an "arm and a leg"?

There was one parked in a upscale neighborhood over here and never moved. White with red interior. The street is right next to the ocean and I watched the white car co from spotless to rust streaks and flaky chrome in three years. I was fighting myself regularly not to just knock in his door and offer the car a better home.

I can't imagine that the weight of that 2JZ did anything for the handling characteristics of that RX8.
