About This Car
This 2002 BMW Z8 was purchased new by the seller’s father, and it has 16k miles following registration history in California. Finished in Jet Black over black Nappa leather, the car is powered by a 4.9-liter V8 paired with a six-speed manual transmission. Features include a color-matched removable hardtop, a black soft top, 18â split-spoke wheels, xenon headlights, heated power-adjustable sport seats, a six-disc CD changer, a Harman Kardon sound system, navigation, and air conditioning. This Z8 is now offered by the seller on behalf of their mother with the owner’s manual, a tool kit, a battery tender, a hardtop stand, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title.
The Z8 features bodywork designed by Henrik Fisker with inspiration from the BMW 507 roadster, and the aluminum body panels are mounted over an aluminum spaceframe. This example is finished in Jet Black and features a color-matched removable hardtop and a black soft top. Additional equipment includes xenon headlights with washers, front fender air extractors with BMW roundels, polished mirror caps, dual exhaust outlets, and neon taillights and turn indicators. A chip is evident on the driver-side mirror cap.
The 18â split-spoke wheels are mounted with Bridgestone Potenza RE040 tires. The four-wheel disc brake system is equipped with Dynamic Brake Control (DBC), and additional features include Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) and All-Season Traction (ASC).
The cabin features black Nappa leather upholstery that extends from the heated power-adjustable seats to the dashboard, center console, and door panels. Amenities include a six-disc CD changer, navigation, a Harman Kardon sound system, leather-wrapped roll hoops, air conditioning, and cruise control. The passenger-seat warmer button trim is missing.
The banjo-spoke steering wheel features silver trim within a leather-wrapped rim. Centrally mounted instrumentation includes a 155-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer with an integrated analog clock, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 16k miles.
The 4.9-liter S62 V8 was shared with the contemporary E39 M5 and features double-VANOS variable valve timing for a factory-rated output of 394 horsepower and 368 lb-ft torque. The oil was changed in June 2023. Blemishes are noted on the hood pad.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission.
The Carfax report shows no accidents or damage and lists registration history in California.
