My Sapphire Black 3.0 z3 roadster is 13 years old next month. I have had the car three years and have done very little to it other than give the hood the Renovo treatment and full Swissvax detailing twice a year (hard work but very rewarding), there is slight cracking in the ivory leather but other than that the car is as new!! well done to the previous owners. I also have a 428i M Sport in melbourne red metalic but have to say its the z3 that puts a smile on my face every time I get behind the wheel.

Welcome Kevin,

Would be lovely to see some pictures of your pride and joy. Black with Ivory interior sounds lovely, it's usually red or black so be nice to see something a little different.

I too have the same feelings about mine, in that I've had lots of daily drivers along side my Z3 but none could ever put a bigger smile on my face!

Cheers, Gary

Welcome to the madhouse of forums from mid northern Canada! Having owned the car for three years amounts to an awe full lot of smiles. Think you'll find a few here and feel free to jump in anytime, JIM

Hi Kevin and welcome from here near Lincoln. Looking forward to seeing pictures of your car, sounds like a great colour mix. Where abouts are you located?

Tony.

Forgot to mention that if the next Zed I buy to import I hope it will have the ivory interior. If not when purchased, it will shortly after arriving as I really like the combo!! So looking forward to some pics, especially that interior! JIM

That is the same combo as Shirl's Eos and it looks stunning when it's clean with the top down.
