Just traded up from a Saturn 1.9L auto to a BMW 330ci 5spd... doubled my horsepower. Now I can use my AC, drive up a hill and not have to downshift!
Just too many better cars for $7k. I just picked up an ‘03 330ci 5spd with same amount of miles as this Tiburon for $2500 less than this CP
Just bought an ‘01 330Ci 5-spd w/ 120k for $4k... no issues. There are much better deals than this z3.
My good friend deals in late 90's early 2000's Bimmers. He has 2 of these - one V8 and one V12. He has spent a fortune just trying get one running and trying to keep the other one on the road... you are correct, the repair costs will drive a man to his grave.
Fun fact: The exhaust is made from a special inconel-titanium alloy (used in light filaments) for weight reduction and heat expulsion. The exhaust system was more expensive than the entire S70/2 BMW V12.
