The new shoes look great! And the exhaust is sweet - I love that little clip of the sound. That's the first one I can recall that completely replaced the stock exhaust tips.

Seems like a deal to me. Based on the pictures at Autotrader (still online), the car needs a trip to the upholstery shop. Seats need repair. No underhood pics or good hood pics. So maybe it is...
Sold for $183,500 as a deal tank car after the pcar market auction stalled at 182k.
The interior plastic bits, including the seat trim panel, are painted plastic. I would buy the black version and have it painted to match. There are no directly adjacent trim panels so any slight...
Molly sharks car pulled $245 today in the auction. Two determined bidders.
Congratulations Benoit - beautiful Z8 and quite a find!
Ceramic pro - works great and looks good. The car was polished - uh, “paint corrected” - first and that did wonders for the micro scratches all over a black car.
That auction had no pictures of the black box the book in which the book rests. Which seemed a little off and kept me out of that particular auction. It’s possible the book was incomplete and maybe...
Congratulations Benoit - that is a great looking Z8! Here's to many enjoyable miles, and to getting the hard top to fit in your garage!
I'm probably going to be selling a black/black (60211) pretty soon. It is the higher mileage car that was on BAT - twice! I was the high bidder on the last RNM auction and worked out a sale. It is...
I just fixed a mirror with the exact same appearance as the one in the BAT auction. Around $100 bucks through Radar Mirror and a week turn around time. Instructions for un-installing/installing the...
We all noticed that the dash on this car was in really bad shape - right? Seller should have said something.
Thanks Bill - will do!
Does anyone want a set of OE run-flats with 8,000 miles on them? Date code is year 2000. You know, for your Concours d'Elegance wheel set.
The mirror looks like it has an overlay pasted on it, but it is absolutely smooth so it is something inside the mirror. Normal for a Z8? Or time to fix the mirror?
The hard top tool is clipped onto the hard top on the drivers side. In the hole that is covered by the plastic louvered covers.
Fixed, that looks better! - Thanks for the help Denis
What is the correct positioning for the wiper airfoil? I know, I could go hunting through pictures. Seems easier to just ask. :)
If a Z8 Napa Valley drive ever comes together, I'd be happy to host lunch at a St Helena winery. It would be great to meet some experienced Z8 folks. I also have to chime in with thanks to Andrew,...
Hi Skip - I had to replace one of those. PN 51-43-7-002-503 Left or PN 51-43-7-002-504 Right from the parts diagram. You have to pull the rear trim panel. To the best of my recollection, remove...
The VIN is 60389
The red/crema on carsandbids went for $185k after 49 bids. Lots of comments/interest.
I was watching - thought it stalled out right at the same time you did. That was two guys after a low mileage Z8.
Please post results! I wasn't aware this was even an option - hope it works and looks great.
I don't know where to find good instructions for removing the tail light assemblies. There was a...
LED replacement tail lights? Where did you find those?
This pin was a giveaway at the London premiere of The World is Not Enough. That is the completely unverified story.<br><br>This link should go to a little video about the premiere that has some nice...
That was a fantastic reference. BMW seems to have shut it down. What does everyone do for a shop manual? Use BMW TIS for $30/day?
@Musta10000 - Skip that comment was tongue in cheek - obviously the humor did not come through. I certainly didn't mean to take a shot at you. I consider everyone on the board car friends that I...
Skip you shouldn’t have mentioned the miles as this one was getting close to the auction end! I dunno what people are thinking. This is a solid car with a lot of expensive work done since the last...
Thanks for posting the followup on the looted Alpina. I've been wondering what happened to the car. I think the dealer still has the $499,000 ad running.
I’m with Skip - that wrap has reached end of life. Get some new stuff installed.
I posted a link to one of the discussions on here regarding the early VIN cars on the listing, so the bidders should/could have been informed purchasers. Went for over 170k with fees and duty.
Beautiful car Molly, and outstanding condition. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Whoever polished everything up for the photos did a really great job!
Spectacular! Thanks for the pictures!
That looks great! Thanks very much for the pictures and the adapter information.
If it was like the other dealer ransackings, they broke open the key lockbox. At that point, all the cars are pretty easy to steal.
Dang, I had it up on my screen for a few days as a "should I get one of these", and now it has turned into a "I should have gotten one of those".
Also interested to hear if this works!
The AC quit working on my Z8. Mechanic says that mechanically everything works fine (bypassing the electronic control system). He can't find anybody that has the "breakout box" necessary to...
Just a quick update - it's been over six months and I have been daily driving the Z8 when the weather is nice. It's northern CA, so a lot of winter days are sunny and a little cold - perfect top...
