2002 BMW Z8

$ 213,999 | 7,628 Miles

Arguably one of BMW’s most timeless modern designs, the Z8 harked back to the classic lines of the late 1950’s BMW 507.  It’s long sweeping hood, side fender vents, and short rear deck lid all pay tribute to the German automakers highly revered classic sports car.  The Z8 compliments this homage with a classic banjo-type steering wheel, center gauges and swooping, elegant dashboard.   The visual aesthetic is complimented on this example by the authentic Alpina Dynamic D01 Wheels wrapped in new Michelin Pilot 4S tires.

The graceful looks of the BMW Z8 were matched by it’s lightweight and nimble handling chassis.  The four-wheel fully independent suspension worked in tandem with the five-link rear setup to create a dynamic athleticism.  The entire vehicle was underpinned by a fully aluminum space frame and all aluminum body panels.  Not to let the handling prowess down, the German automaker decided to mate the sports car chassis to an equally sports car like drivetrain by using the naturally aspirated 4.9 liter V8 motor and six-speed gearbox from the then-current M5 model.  

The Z8 ensured ultimate long distance comfort by adding every available luxury amenity available at the time.  This included, but was not limited to, satellite navigation, air conditioning, electronically adjustable steering column, six way electrically adjustable sport heated seats, a 10-speaker Harmon Kardon sound system and 6-disc CD changer. 

Every single one of the 5,702 BMW Z8’s that were ever produced were constructed between 1999 and 2003 on BMW’s special production line in Munich and only 229 were ever produced in Jet Black over Crema interior.  For reference, Lamborghini has produced over 20,000 Huracan’s throughout it’s model cycle.  A single drive can’t be completed without being approached by someone stating that they’ve never seen a Z8 in person before 🙂

This example was originally delivered to Cutter BMW of Santa Barbra in January of 2002 and remained under the steward of it’s original owner until April of 2021 when it was acquired by a dealer group that displayed it in their showroom until it was sold the vehicle through the RM Sotheby’s Arizona collector vehicle auction.  That steward registered it briefly to their Montana home until it was acquired by a collector in Utah and then us.  I spoke with the original owners of the vehicle from back in 2002 and helped facilitate both purchases for the Montana and Utah owner so I’ve personally been involved with every steward of this vehicle for its entire life.  

The vehicle includes it’s original hard top, hard top stand, books, all keys, documents, serialized coffee table book as well as a clean, accident free vin history and title in hand.  It is a truly a timeless classic that makes myself, and others, smile every time it’s on the road.  I am excited to meet the next steward of this beautiful piece of BMW history.  Please call/text/email me directly, and we’ll talk to you then.  

Thank you,

Grant
