Z3M roadster, 2001 - 2002, 50K miles, £20K

Z4M roadster, 2006 mid, 3K miles, £30K

that is wierd, is this evidence of the price spike in the older model just after the newer model is released? It seems that the Z3M's are getting more expensive.

I don't have a problem with that BTW, before I get flamed for trying to talk down the value of anything, I just thought the current market a bit odd.

Well as time goes on low-mileage S54 engined Z3M's are becoming more and more scarce, and the Z3M's looks and (frankly) savage performance have always been popular and are quite different from the Z4M, as is the price. So they're not really direct competators and thus supply to the most desirable Z3M's is falling, hence the price bump.

I too was quite surprised when I saw a Phoenix Yellow/Kiwi Z3M Coupe for sale at a main dealer for £29k. Although I think they may have been pushing it a little.

Yeah, M Coupe prices are going up. Potentially it has graduated from "Soon to be classic" to "Classic"? Certainly the way I view the car

Have I read this correctly??? You know you can buy a less than 1yr old Z4M Coupe from a main stealer with 3k on the clock for 33K...

You read correctly. It was one of the very last M Coupes in an Individual colour scheme with delivery miles. It was a nice car, but lets get real for a minute!

Yeah, except I am saying how expensive the Z3M roadster is relative to the Z4, I mean, at the rate the Z4M is depreciating, wait 18 months and that will be a real bargain!
