Product Overview

BMW Z3 M Coupe (chassis code E36/8) is the performance version of the Z3 Coupe subcompact coupe in production from 1997 to 2002. It was available with a couple of inline-6 engines that displaced 3.2 liters.
Compared to the standard Z3 Coupe, the Z3 M Coupe was only offered with a 5-speed manual transmission. It uses more powerful engines in S50/S52 guises pre-2001 and S54 after 2001. A limited slip differential and more aggressive stance were employed, too.
Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the BMW Z3 M Coupe uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
