New Inventory - 2000 BMW Z8

I've always liked the BMW Z8 design since it was first released. Spending time with one only bolsters that viewpoint. The thought and details on the car are more "hand-built" feeling than mass produced. The car is something special, and it is unique that BMW has promised to support the car with parts for 50 years. A true modern classic that can be enjoyed for decades.

Mechanically, the Z8 chassis utilized modern aluminum stampings, with many lightweight castings and formed aluminum components including independent suspension. For power, the M5 series 4.9 liter quad-cam V8 engine was tuned to 400hp, and mounted well behind the front axle for optimal weight distribution allowing it to achieve .92g of lateral acceleration, with 4.2 second 0-60 times. Competitive with Ferrari performance of the era, the BMW Z8 was powerful yet easy to drive and surprisingly so for a range of even lesser experienced performance drivers. Today, Z8s are sought-after for their award-winning design and high performance.

This beautifully maintained Z8 has been under the care of two thoughtful enthusiast owners since delivered new. Both owners refrained accumulating significant miles on the car in order to preserve the quality and condition of the car. Having accrued just 3,900 miles, this Z8 still retains the original tires as delivered from the factory. The first owner owned the car for approximately 2 years until it was purchased by the current owner at a premium collector car auction in 2002. One of a few hundred that were imported and federalized, the Titanium Silver with Red and Black Nappa leather interior combination makes this a rare, highly optioned Z8.

Please give me a call to talk about this car, or anything else in our inventory - I look forward to hearing from you.

Warm Regards,
