Pros: powerful and sure-footed
Cons: lacks distinctive body style, poor cosmetics
While the M Roadster isn't sitting in my garage, I've collected enough on-road experience with this car to present a fuller driving impression than a dealer's test drive will allow. It's to prospective buyers I write this review.

Pros: Sporty feel
Cons: not practicle for snowy winters
This mid priced roadster is worth every penny. The manual 5 speed transmition gives the Z3 a sporty racing feel, while the handling is precise and crisp. The transmition is anything but spasmodic. Where as other roadsters tend to be lose. The manual top...

Pros: BMW reliability and design
Cons: little small for a primary vehicle
About two months ago, I have decided to exchange my 1995 BMW M3 to something "different". Based on my BMW experience (I have also owned a 1984 325e before), I purchased another BMW vehicle. For a change, I got the Z3 roadster.

Pros: performance
Cons: roominess
This tin can was featured in the movie James Bond, which i think is a little small for him and everyone else. This is an outstanding car for performance. But as far as comfort and size go, i think it is a little to small for the open road. You dont see...

Pros: great steering, hugs curves, fast acceleration, high quality safety equipment, reasonably priced, gorgeous, highly admired
Cons: small, high maintenance
I do not own this vehicle, but I know many that do. And every single one have them have raved about this spectacular piece of machinery. Not only does this thing grip the curves like super glue, it looks like a million dollars and is safe. You...

Pros: Power, styling, power, convertible, did I mention power...
Cons: Tight trunk (to be expected)
The Bottom Line: This is an excellent driving machine which is already a classic. Incredible power combined with awesome handling and great looks. What more could you want?
Although initially I was looking for a newer Z3, one drive in the '98 M roadster convinced me that it is everything that the Z3 was meant to be. These two cars are vastly different; virtually the only common component shared between the M and the garden...

Pros: Great handling and styling
Cons: a little bit slower than I expected
Don't get me wrong, this is a great car. It is a blast to drive, and it certainly turns heads no matter where I take it. I didn't get the Roadster model, which is probably my mistake, but this car just all that I expected it to be. This car looks...

Pros: The MOST fun to drive
Cons: Dangerous in snow
Well, you can't in this car! If you really like driving, this is the car to get. Not for wimps. It handles like a flexible flyer in the snow, but on dry roads is amazing. Fast, amazing handling and potent brakes. If you have access to a track BRING IT...

Pros: Fast enough to scare most, nice cruiser with the top down.
Cons: Way too small for 'normal' people. Possible safety problem with equipment and controlability (small and close pedals)
While I haven't owned one myself, I've driven a relative's enough to have an opinion... I wouldn't own one myself.
The small stature is popular with sports cars, but this thing is just plain TOO small. I'm 6'3" tall, and it's a bit of a...

Pros: COOLEST CAR ON THE ROAD
Cons: SMALL
The BMW Z3 is one sweet ride. If you want a car that screams, mine's better than yours, you need this car. It is far more stylish than its competitors, the Porsche Boxster and the Mercedes Benz SLK 230 and a lot cheaper too. The only thing about this...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: small sportscar feel, good quality
Cons: small interior space, oil consumption
This is the most solidly built car I have ever owned. It is a blast to drive, has an abundance of power, gets fantastic gas mileage, and handles like a true sports car. I previously owned a Mitsubishi Eclipse, and this car is better in every aspect,...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Great sedan-like amenities in a tight convertible package
Cons: Somewhat costly to repair and maintain
After having a string of 3 series BMW sedans, I couldn't resist the unique style of the Z3. The best feature to the Z3 is that you can enjoy many of the same "bells and whistles" of the 3 series sedans except now these features come wrapped in...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Incredible good Looks
Cons: A bit on the expensive side
The BMW Z3 is a car unlike many other sports convertibles, mainly because it has that lovely badge that says that you are in control or he has got to be loaded. The sound of the engine when you put the pedal to the metal is astounding in this model made...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: looks and driveability
Cons: don't need automatic top
I bought a 98 Z3 because of its looks and driving ability. I have the 1.9 liter 4 cyl., 16" wheels. The 4 actually handles and rides better than the 6 w/17" wheels(the thin depth and wide width of the tire pulls the wheel out of your hands on...
