An unrepeatable, museum-grade E36/ 7 BMW Z3 2. 8 Roadster displaying just 29, 099 verified miles from new.
Preserved under strictly dry garage storage from day one, this example has never been driven in the rain and remains completely free of road corrosion, structural aging, or cosmetic defects. It presents in uncompromising factory condition—a true time capsule that looks, smells, and drives as it did rolling off the production line.
Finished in flawless Arctic Silver Metallic over a rare, unmarked two-tone Topaz Blue and Black leather interior with matte chrome fascia, this widebody facelift pairs BMW’s revered 2. 8L M52TUB28 twin-cam straight-six with a purist 5-speed manual gearbox.
As with every vehicle we release, this car has undergone our exhaustive mechanical verification process to a standard we demand for ourselves — not simply cleaned, but engineered.

What sets this Z3 2. 8 apart from almost every other modern classic on the market is its sheer state of preservation. It is not a restored car, nor is it a tired example that has been given a quick cosmetic spruce-up. It is a genuine, unmolested 29, 000-mile time capsule that has been garaged from day one and strictly spared from rain or winter driving.
From the factory-fresh grain on the M Sport steering wheel to the completely immaculate, wax-clean engine bay and underbody hardware, every detail reflects a life of obsessive care. Finding a facelift widebody Z3 is hard enough today; finding one with the revered M52TUB28 twin-cam straight-six, a 5-speed manual gearbox, and this level of zero-defect originality is extraordinarily rare.
Behind the wheel, it delivers an experience modern sports cars simply cannot replicate. The naturally aspirated 2. 8-litre inline-six offers immediate throttle response, a linear power curve, and that classic, mechanical BMW straight-six soundtrack. The gearshift is short and crisp, the steering is communicative and hydraulic, and the cabin—finished in its vibrant, unmarked two-tone Topaz Blue leather—makes every drive feel like an event.
Whether you are looking for a centrepiece collector’s piece for dry weekends or a blue-chip modern classic to preserve for the future, this is an unrepeatable example that stands in a league of its own.
