S54B32 M Coupe | Imola Red | Black

S54B32 M Coupe | Imola Red | Black | 46-NZ-JB

 

This M Coupe was posted on autogespot.com by Ferrari Fan after spotting it in Culemborg, Netherlands. Based upon what is visible, this sunroof delete Coupe is all stock. The Roadsars appear to be Chrome Shadow, which leads me to believe this is an 01 or 02 with an S54 under the hood. There are said to have been only 284 LHD European S54 M Coupes produced. That said this must be a pretty rare color and option combo for the market. In the US there were 678 S54 M Coupes produced, of which 19 were Imola over black (183 total Imola/Black), with only 1 of them sold without a sunroof. It’s possible that this is not an S54 M Coupe, but given what I can see in the photos, I believe it is. If you happen to recognize the Coupe, or it’s plate (46-NZ-JB), please post in the comments.

Road Trip — Phoenix, AZ to Las Vegas, NV | 2002 M Coupe | Laguna Seca Blue | Black

Road Trip —  Phoenix, AZ to Las Vegas, NV | 2002 M Coupe | Laguna Seca Blue | Black | Nothing, AZ

 

To celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary and my wife’s 30th birthday, we left the kids with our family and drove the Coupe to Las Vegas for a long weekend. I prepared for a variety of potential issues with the Coupe, but we were very fortunate to have none at all. The Coupe was an excellent road trip car, and very comfortable for the 5 hour drive. Not that I should be surprised as we bought my first M Coupe from Rowland Heights, CA and drove it home. The bulk of the drive to Las Vegas is a 2 lane highway through scenic desert with lots of opportunity to enjoy the drive. Friday on the way up to Vegas though, we were stuck behind a caravan of RVs that were poking along 5-10 under the speed limit. As soon as there was a passing lane open, we easily blasted past the slow traffic. We stopped for some quick photos in Nothing, AZ, mostly because of the irony of the name. We had a great trip, and a good warm up for our drive to Dorkfest in August!

1999 Z3 Coupe | Arctic Silver | Black

1999 Z3 Coupe | Arctic Silver | Black | Time Attack Stripe Black Wheels

 

This Z3 Coupe was posted for sale on blocket.se in Brokind, Sweden with 11,000 mil (1 mil = 10km, so 110,000 km or 68,350 miles) for 105,000 SEK (~$15,757 USD). This Coupe reminds me of Gary Akopyan’s previous Z3 Coupe, primarily because of the red Time Attack style stripe on the black wheels combined with the ride height and Arctic Silver paint. Mods include: Aftermarket suspension, 3 spoke M steering wheel, painted Style 42 wheels (I think they’re Style 42, at least), and Remus cat-back exhaust.

1998 Z3 Coupe | Arctic Silver | Black

1998 Z3 Coupe | Arctic Silver | Black | AC Schnitzer Type IV 19 Inch

 

This Z3 Coupe was posted for sale on sulit.com.ph in Tagaytay City, Cavite, Philippines with under 60k miles for P 1,300,000 ($~30,296 USD). Mods include: 19″ AC Schnitzer Type IV wheels, Sonar Projectors, clear corner lights, aftermarket suspension, and a 3 spoke M steering wheel. The 3 spoke M steering wheel became standard beginning in 2000 for all Z3 variants. This 1998 must have had the original 4 spoke wheel swapped out at some point. Based upon the automatic transmission, headlight washers, and non-European plate sized bumper cutout, I believe this Coupe was imported to the Philippines from Japan. Japan has a strict and costly inspection program, “Shaken“, that causes many low mileage vehicles to be exported due to the high cost of maintaining them. Given the proximity of the two countries, this seems like a logical explanation.
