    1999 Z3 M coupe with Randy Forbes reinforcement

    After acquiring the most well set up coupe I could find 6 months ago I have decided to let her go. My priorities and hobbies have changed as I spend all of my free time in the mountains. After 25 years of being an avid car enthusiast I have lost the spark. I have all receipts and records for the work done. No accidents or excuses on this car. The airbag light just came on tonight after moving the seats to take pics. I will have that sorted for the next owner. Please email me for the fastest response. I have two sets of wheels that go along with the asking price of $32,000 18x8.5 and 18x11 Fifteen52 Formula GT's ( 245/35 and 285/30 ) and stock roadstars powder coated black. Less than 500 miles on new wheels and tires.
