Presentation
This 1999 BMW Z3 Coupé, originally from Japan, has 287,000 km on the odometer, but this mileage is incorrect due to the odometer being replaced during an engine swap. The seller estimates the actual mileage to be 142,000 km (140,000 km before the conversion). The seller states that the vehicle is in good overall condition and has recently undergone maintenance. This Z3 Coupé, originally equipped with a 2.8 engine and automatic transmission, had its engine and gearbox replaced in 2017 to achieve its current configuration.
