1998 BMW Z3 2.8 L 6-cylinder Dark Green - Engine runs great

1998 BMW Z3 Roadster Description

1998 BMW Z3 2.8 L 6-CylinderConvertible
No Reserve! When my previous auction ended the highest bidder did not pay. Please do not bid unless you intend to buy.
This is a really fun car to drive and with the heated seats turned on, you can drive with the top down in Autumn and Spring. This is the faster of the 2 options sold in 1998 and it's quick and handles well.
It comes loaded with features: automatic transmission, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, heated leather seats, ABS, traction control, cruise control, fog lights.
I purchased this car as certified, pre-owned from a BMW dealership in May 2000 with 5,000 miles on the car, so I have owned it for 16 of its 18 years. The car drives great and I've never had any major problems with the engine. For the last 4 years this has been my spare car because I have young kids and needed a minivan.
Although I kept up with oil changes and inspection (the car passed VA inspection in May), I have neglected to fix some things as they broke. As I wrote in the "condition" section,Automatic convertible top motor is disengaged so top must be manually raised and lowered. The nose of the car has a dent and there are some rust spots on the hood (see pics). Paint is peeling on the trunk (see pics). The car has a leak - probably needs to have new seals / gaskets installed. A/C is broken. A couple of months ago the radio and passenger seat electricity suddenly stopped working. Steering wheel leather is peeling.
Included accessories: A nice fitted car cover. The tan boot covering the top in these photos. A cloth rear window cover.
Some people have asked me if the car would make the drive from Virginia to their home. The answer is Yes! It runs great, but could benefit from some TLC.
