    I have a 2000 M Roadster that has factory cruise. Not sure about Z3.

    Mine too. The cruise lever is below the wiper lever. Push forward to set or accelerate, pull back to coast, pull down to turn off.

    Maybe there are differences between US spec and EURO , South Africa specs Z3 with regards to standard equipment. What is the VIN?

    At least in the US, it was optional on the 99-00 2.3.

    Could be optional on some 2000 models as well. What is the OP looking for here? Are you looking at a specific car or just curious? The question is pretty general without any specific details.

    Mine 2.2i 2001 euro market, didn’t came with cruise control, a few months ago I retrofitted the cruise and works great, kind of an easy job.

    Vin decoder doesn't list cruise specifically but shows a multifunction steering wheel so possibly you do have itIMG_1613.PNG

    My Z3 was built in Oct 1996 and has cruise control.
    It is on the sticker as one of the standard Engineering and Safety Features.
    It not in the list of Options and Additional Charges, which include traction control, heated seats and mirrors, leather, and computer.

    Been driving my car for a year and never noticed. Considering that I am a “spirited” driver it never even crossed my mind to check if it is even there

    When they dropped the 4cyl at the end of the 98 year, there were a few things like fog lights and cruise that were no longer standard in order to keep the price somewhat unchanged.
    Was standard on all Z3/Z3M models other than the 99-00 2.3

    They all show a multifunction steering wheel, but those functions are left, right and horn! There were never wheels with function buttons on for the Z3. If Cruise isn't listed, it doesn't have it.

    I had forgotten that. It appears in other CC retrofit threads, too.

    while on the subject of cruise control - is there an indicator light denoting that the cruise control is active on the Z3 - I don't have one, is this normal?

    Yes. The dashboard funnily enough has a cruise control light in it, but it is not activated in the Z3.

    I also have a 2000 2.3 US Z with no cruise. Like others I have decided to retrofit the cruise as it seems to be a pretty easy retrofit, getting the stalk and the module. I also find it funny that there is a cruise light in the dash, but the Z3 does not utilize the light. Can it somehow be initiated via INPA? Not that big of a deal but it’s weird to have it there and not have it do anything.
