Z3 party at the BMW Welt

If you’ve been following this blog, you’d know that I was in Munich recently for BMW Group’s Preview event. Since I was there, dropping by the Welt was a no-brainer, and, whilst at the Welt, I came across the brand new i5 and 5-Series, well, I also happened to be in the right place and the right time to see a Z3 meet up happening right outside the Welt, or rather, the BMW museum.

I was actually still at the Welt when I glanced over the museum and saw this lineup of Z3s, so I did what any normal car guy would do and (very) quickly made my way over!

The Z3 M Coupe has always been one of my favourite BMW M-cars (and the E30 M3 of course). I just absolutely LOVE the oddball shape. This is for me, the perfect M-car. Straight-6, manual, low-slung looks and space in the rear for both of my dogs!

I remember a time when these were “affordable”. Sigh…

MOVING ON… Here are more Clownshoes in slightly less hectic forms.

This one was rather interesting because while I was admiring the car, the very friendly owner came over and we had a good chat.

Turns out this particular car, is the first Z3 Coupe to roll off the German factory floor. Matching plates too!

One of the few M Roadsters in attendance. Not quite as pretty as their Coupe siblings but not quite as expensive either.

More Z3s.

Tasty looking little number on M Double Spokes.

And since I usually don’t get many photos since I’m often alone on such excursions, the friendly owner of Z3 Coupe chassis 001 offered to take a photo for me. 🙂
