2002 BMW Z3 3.0i Coupe finished in Dakar Yellow over Black Nappa extended M Coupe leather with Leather Z custom trims. It is powered by a 3.0-liter M54B30 6-cylinder engine rated at 225hp mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes 17-inch Style 42 alloy wheels, a limited-slip differential, dynamic stability control, a sunroof, heated sport seats, cruise control and air conditioning. The car was first registered in Ohio then Kansas by the original owner. It was purchased by the second owner and brought to California in 2021. It was then acquired by Bay 22 from the second owner, along with two other Z3 Coupes that were also in his collection.

This Z3 was originally ordered and purchased by Andy Maddux of Leather Z leatherz.com. It came with walnut extended leather. Andy and his brother Jon, who also had a Z3, agreed to swap interiors which is how this cars interior became black. Then Andy created the custom Dakar stitched elements you see here. Other modifications include MZ3 side and rearview mirrors, BMW Individual door sills, PPF on front bumper, hood and rear fenders, Conforti cold air intake and shark injector the photos show a Dinan CARB legal sticker, Supersprint exhaust, Randy Forbes rear diff and subframe reinforcement 2010, M differential cover, Ron Styger clutch pedal, Ireland Engineering subframe bushings and H&R coilovers.

Audio upgrades include Boston Pro and JL Audio speakers, JL Audio 300.4 amp, and a Kenwood amp for the sub. Audio mods are invisible behind factory grilles.

Paint and interior are in beautiful near-mint condition. There was reported minor damage on the back bumper in 2014. While waiting to make a left turn at a stop sign, a car behind tried to make right behind the original owner and bumped the rear bumper at under 5 mph. The bumper was removed and repainted by the Baron BMW Collision Center in Kansas City, Kansas. No damage to the metal work and no repair work beyond the paint was required for the fix.

Recently the Z3 was fully paint corrected and ceramic coated along with full front PPF one piece custom done on the hood, front bumper and fenders and light tint on all windows to protect the interior leather from the sun. H&R coilovers were just added along with General G-Max tires all around.

Also included with sale is a complement of keys, owners manual, and a complete tool kit.

Approximately 47 Dakar yellow Z3s were sold in the US, only 2 came with walnut trim, and of those, only this one had a sunroof.

Included with the car are the maintenance records and receipt history, all keys 2 keys, 1 valet Key, 1 glovebox Key, original owners manual, original window sticker, original BMW Welcome Kit and a copy of the November 2003 Bimmer Magazine the car was featured in. Also included is the original BMW Performance Center plate that was on the car at delivery.
