Just purchased a 98 Z3 with 10000K on the clock. It has the 2.8 engine. Any suggestions on the best source for parts/accessories? Are there any mechanical differences between the 3 series e36 and the Z3 e36's? Any potential problems that I should look out for?

Thanks,

Ray

Dug,

Just returned from an extended vacation and saw your question. I found my Z3 by going online and looking at the Dallas Morning Star ads. There seems to be lots of z3's in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. I love the little z, it is a real dream to drive, and handles like a champ.

I live in Homosassa, Fl., about 60-70 miles north of Tampa on the Gulf coast. Drop me a note at jsmith@xtalwind.net.

WOW!!!
There is life on this board.
I bought my '98 Z3 2 weeks ago and absoulutly love it.
Got mine at a dealer in Jax. FL.- 24K miles and in great shape. $13000.00.
It compliments my '86 325 ES.
Love both of them.
I'm in St. Augustine, FL.
Good luck Dug>

After coveting it for nearly 10 years, I am now the proud owner of a Z3 in Atlanta Blue. Does anyone know of a good place to get the chrome roll hoops?
