BMW Z3 Driving Experiences

In production from 1995 to 2002, the Z3 is BMW’s small but mighty two seater sports car, which we offer to drive in a custom prepared Coupe model for our range of Stunt Driving Experiences we have available to book here on TrackDays.

The Z3 Coupe was first revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1997, and despite its diminutive proportions, is a surprisingly powerful drive with superb steering and handling that makes it ideal to pull off some incredible drifting and skid stunts on our many locations and venues nationwide.

Powered on a 1.8 litre M43 engine, pumping out 118 bhp. Its top speed is an impressive 125 mph, and it accelerates from 0 - 60 mph in 10.1 seconds. One thing’s for sure, your time going sideways and smoking tyres in a Z3 will be an unforgettable one.

The Z3 has the unique distinction of being BMW’s first ever model not to be produced at their headquarters in Germany. Instead, it was manufactured at their base in Greer, South California. It was the States who also got the Z3 first when it was launched by a video press release by BMW for North America.

However, the Z3 is perhaps best known for its appearance being Pierce Brosnan as James Bond in the 1995 installment of the popular film series, GoldenEye. To mark the film’s release, BMW produced a special ‘James Bond Edition’ of the Z3, initially limited to 20 units, but increased to 100 following unprecedented demand, with a price tag of just over £28,000.
