Hit with the ugly stick! have you ever seen a worse shopping trolley handle, ever? On a Z3? It's interesting; US built (Spartanburg plant), ex-Japan, LHD, metric gauges. Looks pretty tidy, to be fair. 80k kms. Did I mention the interior? An interesting blend (clash) of faux-walnut and plum leather. It was the 90's, after all. The Foo Fighters had just dropped their debut album the year before, we were wrapped in Britpop and Cool Britain, you could press your nose against the glass of the McLaren showroom in West London and marvel at the F1. Bill Clinton had been re-elected and there was an air of positivity in the US Economy; a whitehouse intern oddly elected not to dry-clean her dress. The e39 debuted in UK, seems light-years ahead of the five it replaces. Plaid shirts were in. Cigars were smoked in bars throughout North America. And this Z3 exited the Spartanburg assembly line, exactly 5 years before planes hit the twin towers in NYC. This really needs rescuing to make into a track car, really. with an S52 or something. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-1234808191.htm
