For Sale at Auction: 2002 BMW Z8 in Amelia Island, Florida for sale in Yulee, FL
Vehicle Description Chassis No.
WBAEJ13462AH61832 Revealed to the world as the Z07 concept at the 1997 Tokyo motor show, BMW's endeavor to revive the timeless 507 of the 1950s was arguably the most successful example of the retro-futurism aesthetic that would captivate the automotive design industry at the turn of the 21st century.
The flamboyant and vintage exterior was the work of prolific designer Henrik Fisker, who did not stray far from his initial concept in the design of the production BMW Z8.
Equally impressive was Fisker's ability to reinterpret the 507's artful interior into a modern cockpit, with a banjo-style steering wheel comprised of steel spokes, a central instrument pod, brushed aluminum switchgear, and a body-color panel running the full width of the dashboard.
More than just a pretty face, the BMW Z8 boasted the latest performance technology from BMW's revered M division.
Its sensuous bodywork and spaceframe chassis were comprised of lightweight aluminum, as were many of the suspension components including its coil-over front and multi-link rear systems.
The Z8's beating heart was the 394 horsepower, 4.
9-liter V8 from the scorching BMW M5 sedan, which bestowed the roadster with sufficient power to achieve zero to 60 mph in 4.
5 seconds.
Best of all, the V8's intoxicating exhaust note could be fully enjoyed thanks to its power-retractable soft top or removable body-color hardtop.
Combined with its generous standard equipment including air conditioning, power seats, leather upholstery, and ample storage space, the Z8 is favored by collectors for its blend of practicality and fabulous design.
This stunning BMW Z8 was assembled in Munich as a U.
S.
-market, left-hand drive example in May 2002 and arrived in the United States through Port Hueneme, California.
One of just 114 Z8s finished in Stratus Grey Metallic over Black Nappa leather upholstery, the new Z8 was first registered in California in November 2002.
The accompanying CARFAX Vehicle History Report shows that the roadster remained in the Los Angeles area over the following decade, briefly passing to Ohio in 2014 before entering the care of the current Pennsylvania-based owner in 2015.
Freshly serviced at Bobby Rahal BMW of South Hills in January 2024, this low-mileage BMW Z8 is ready to be enjoyed for its potent V8 and engaging six-speed manual transmission on quick, twisty roads with the top down.
The vehicle is additionally presented with its serialized coffee table book, owner's manuals, hard top stand, boot cover, and wind deflector.
