Description
2006 BMW Z4 3.0Si SE Roadster
6-speed manual | 86,800 miles
A very well sorted and increasingly rare E85 Z4 3.0Si manual finished in Monaco Blue metallic with beige leather one of the best colour combinations for the model.
This is the later facelift 3.0Si fitted with the superb N52 3.0 straight-six: smoother, more responsive and freer revving than earlier cars. Enthusiast owned and carefully maintained with sensible OEM+ improvements.
Originally intended as a long-term keeper, now only for sale due to an unexpected move into a Porsche 981 S.
Specification includes:
3.0Si SE Roadster
6-speed manual gearbox
Heated electric seats
Sport button
Factory 17" BMW Style 200 alloys
Matching Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 tyres fitted recently
10mm wheel spacers for improved stance
The car has benefitted from extensive preventative maintenance and drives exceptionally well with tight steering, strong brakes and a superb engine.
Recent / notable work includes:
Hood motor replaced and relocated
Full copper brake pipe replacement
Front Sachs shocks and springs
Rear shocks and springs replaced
Front control arms and bushes replaced
Inspection II service around 84k
Oil filter housing gasket replaced
Differential output seals addressed
Regular servicing regardless of mileage
The car pulls strongly, idles smoothly and feels extremely tight and sorted.
Tasteful stainless exhaust setup fitted comprising:
Supersprint Powerloop rear silencer
Custom X-pipe and resonated stainless system
This gives the car a deeper, more exotic straight-six tone without unpleasant motorway drone.
I deliberately retained the factory 17" wheels as they preserve the ride quality and steering feel better than many 18" setups. Combined with the Eagle F1 tyres, the car feels balanced, analogue and engaging in a way modern cars increasingly do not.
The car presents very well for its age and mileage with only age-related marks consistent with a properly used modern classic. Interior remains in very good condition.
Never tracked or abused.
A rare opportunity to buy a genuinely maintained, mechanically sorted and subtly enhanced manual 3.0Si good examples are becoming increasingly hard to find.
