About this generation
The Z3 Roadster was the original production body style for BMW’s Z3 line, introduced in the mid-1990s as a compact two-seat convertible. It reached the U.S. market for the 1996 model year and remained on sale there through 2000 before the facelifted version arrived. Early U.S. Z3 Roadsters established the model’s long-hood, rear-wheel-drive roadster formula.
