210,000 miles and still drives like new

I purchased this car new towards the end of 1999. This car has performed amazingly well, is fun to drive, responsive, reliable, handles great, has plenty of power, is comfortable, and is surprisingly affordable regarding repairs. This is an everyday car for me. It has rarely broken down. Here would be the wishes: A glass rear window instead of plastic (I replaced the top once since owning the car, but the plastic window will start to get a yellowish tint over time), a spare tire (this car doesn't have one and if on a long trip and getting a blow out could be an issue- but I have not had this happen to me), an automatic hard top convertible instead of cloth (nitpicking), cheaper replacement speakers (the bass driver mounted on the center console behind and to the right of the driver blew out and is about $600.00 to replace- can't use a generic speaker). Total repair costs since I purchased this car are about $10,000- which is pretty good for a 16 year old car with over 200,000 miles on it. Without a doubt the best car I have ever owned and one I continue to greatly enjoy- hopefully for another 200,000 miles! I highly recommend this car.

A BMW 240hp Go Kart!

I bought a then-new 1999 M Roadster from BMW of Honolulu. It was instant love at first drive. I've never seen a car straighten out the curves on Oahu's famous Tantalus Drive like this one can. I kept it for 7 years. Traded it in for an X5 4.4. Many years later, feeling acute M Roadster withdrawal, while living in remote Shelton, WA I began searching for another M Roadster, the same Estoril Blue. Found one with 55,000 miles in 2021 in Yakima WA. It originally sold from BMW of Honolulu just six months after my 1999! The zing is still there. I defy anybody to drive this car and NOT have it put a big-ass grin on your face. It looks great. It sounds great. It is the most fun I've ever had in a car.

Smile so hard your face hurts

Bought the M with relatively high mileage (79K) but it is in great shape. Handles as though it is on tracks and accelerates, in all gears. Like it has jets. Long drives can be a bit difficult (I am almost 6'2" and the seats are a slightly bit hard, but if I take a break every 2 hours, no problem. It's a fun car, always noticed (ty, the cops too :( ) but a real treat to drive. I think I like the lines of this model more than the Z4 but would love to have some of the improvements of the newer Zs -- slightly wider interior, more comfy seats, and a fully automatic top. Otherwise, it's a dream.

I bought this car from someone who babied the heck out of it and I have continued the tradition. It's a great car that delivers impressive performance, a bit of sex appeal, and much better than expected economy. However, the stock stereo was awful and suspension components were iffy.

M ROADSTER

The M Roadster is a nimble and powerful car. With a stock horsepower rating of 240 (with the addition of a chip and intake filter it jumps to 280HP) it has plenty of get up and go. The two-tone cockpit is 2nd to none.
