Right, then...

Finally got the airbag fixed on the Z3...had to replace a side impact sensor and now there are officially no lights on the dash! Brakes are getting done tomorrow which will wrap up the major work I had planned. This weekend I’ll sort out the speakers and do a fluids change on the trans and differential. Then it’s down to detailing, driving and enjoying . I know there will be other issues as this is an aging German car...but I think I’m in a nice spot, now. I’ll tally up the costs but I think I’m in for $3000 on top of the purchase price. Not a bad deal for a low mileage car, I think...

Sent this pic to my in-laws who I bought the car from.  They’re quite pleased to see that she’s getting repaired and is back on the road being loved...

Looks just like my z3 but yours sounds like it's probably nicer

Looks awesome! I love those wheels on the Z3. I had a 2000 323i with the same engine (actually a 2.5 I think) which sounded great I absolutely adored. I wouldn’t have called it quick, but it m ust be really nice engine in a Z3. I’m jealous! Hello from also the bay

No complaints on the 2.5...while more HP is nice, I think this engine is more reliable than the M.    Sounds nice when wound up but I am pondering a muffl er delete (keeping resonator and cat converter in place)
