    Description:

    With the Z8, BMW made a bold statement in the roadster segment at the beginning of the 2000s. First unveiled at the 1999 Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA), production took place between March 2000 and July 2003, with only 5,703 examples built – all meticulously handcrafted. Its design pays homage to the legendary BMW 507, combining timeless elegance with modern engineering. Powered by the 5.0-liter V8 engine from the M5 (E39), paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, the Z8 delivers impressive performance and an engaging driving experience. Thanks to its aluminum spaceframe construction and perfectly balanced chassis, it offers both agility and refinement in equal measure. In 2003, readers of Motor Klassik voted the Z8 “Classic of the Future” in the “Open Cars” category – an accolade that underlines its lasting appeal and strong collector potential.

    This German-delivered Z8 comes from single ownership and is one of only 137 examples specified in this rare color combination. With just 26,536 km from new, the car presents itself in an as new collector-grade condition. Its sole owner, an elderly BMW enthusiast, cherished the car from day one**, using it exclusively in good weather** and always with the utmost care. The sale includes the original hardtop, complete owner’s manuals with service book, and supplementary BMW literature. Recently the car underwent a large service.

    A truly rare opportunity to acquire an original BMW Z8 with unique provenance and exceptional collector potential – a car in which not only James Bond made a fine impression in “The World Is Not Enough” (1999).

    Engine: 5,0-lt.-V8, 400 hp, 6-speed manual gearbox
