BMW M Coupé and Roadster

The BMW M Coupé and BMW M Roadster are the high performance versions of the BMW Z3 and, later, the BMW Z4, built by BMW M, the company's motorsport and performance division. The first generation, based on the Z3, was produced from 1998 to 2002, and the second, based on the Z4, from 2006 to 2008. Every car was assembled at the BMW plant in Spartanburg in the United States, with major components such as the engine and transmission shipped over from Germany. The pair is notable for taking engines from the contemporary M3, and the stiffer coupé body became a favourite of collectors.
