In this video I get the incredible opportunity to take out and review a James Bond 007 Icon, the BMW Z3 2.8. This not only close matches the colour of the Z3 featured in Goldeneye from 1995 but also this car is a left hand drive example. If nothing else this video will show you I do indeed know how to drive a manual car even when sat on the wrong side of the car.
In this video I talk you around the Z3, discuss the performance, build quality, explore the handling and listen to the glorious sound track of the 2.8 Inline 6. This could be the next genuine classic BMW and one that is ultimately and icon.
Often overlooked the BMW Z3 introduced in 1998 in roadster and coupé body styles and were powered by the S50, S52, or S54 straight-six engine depending on country and model year. The M models came with a 5-speed manual transmission.
Production ended on June 28, 2002, with the Z3 line replaced by the E85 Z4.
This example is of course a left hand drive, imported from Berlin by the current owner and daily used ever since, this is by far the best example on the road but what it is is a great usable little German sportscar with genuine 007 credentials. The specs of this car are as follows:
- 2.8 Litre Inline 6
- 245 BHP
- 275 NM
- 0-60 6.1 Seconds
- Top Speed 160 MPH
I hope you enjoy watching this video, it is the first BMW I have ever featured but as the whole channel was built around my Porsche Cayman S I thought this car may just appeal.
Leave a comment below if you have enjoyed it, let me know if you have owned one of these little cars or plan to.
