    How to value your Z for insurance?

    Hey all, happy Friday! Quick question: my insurance carrier--Hagerty, decent and affordable--sent me a note to consider raising the insurable value of my Z by 1K. Obviously that's more revenue for them, but it got me wondering--I know one "value" marker is what I paid, but how do the lot of...

    OEM radio volume knob question, 1997 z3--nothing urgent

    Anyone else notice that their volume knob starts to loosen, or won't actually control the volume as built? Don't really want the added expense of a new radio, love the cassette deck for the novelty of my old cassettes, but the knob just won't work, or turns the volume up when I turn it down, or...

    Marvelous New England round trip

    Currently hanging in New Hampshire for some weeks (#blessedandlucky). Had a marvelous round trip ride the other day--headed over to Portland, ME with the top down on a cool, cloudy summer day to see the great Billy Bragg in concert. The way back the next day (with a case of Maine Brewing in the...

    Thanks, Tony--Mine also! Nugs.net has the entire collection, so for the price of a $9 bluetooth cassette converter, it was Mark and the boys the entire time.

    Write Up Headed up to New England last week...

    Hello all: After a month of keeping the new (to me) 97 green Z3 at home in Philly, and having some 55 year old dad fun on the occasional sunny day, 'twas time to take it north to New Hampshire where it'll reside. Drove like a dream the whole way Philly to NH, including dropping the top near...

    VERY silly gear search: cupholder?

    Thanks! So he prints it to the standard specs and it just fits in? I have the goofy 6 cassette holder as the armrest, and do actually use that (lots of bootlegs from the younger days). Can I trouble you for his ebay handle? The sale is over so I can't link to it on ebay. Don't go to...

    VERY silly gear search: cupholder?

    Lol. The precarious balancing act between the seat backs is too much for one rosary string!

    VERY silly gear search: cupholder?

    Hey all: 97 Z3 is the belle of the ball in my neighborhood, and driving great. Hard to have a cup of coffee (or cuppa for the folks across the pond) though. Anyone know of a particularly good add-on for holding a Yeti, H2O bottle, or can of soda?

    small oil leak, almost too small to find?

    New (to me) Z3 M44, 1997, 81k miles. I'm the third owner, previous two took meticulous care. I've been told that oil leakage is a standard issue on Z3's over time, my local guy--whom I trust like a God--says there's some oil leakage but he can't seem to find it, and I drove it 200 miles...

    Thanks--going from a great but flawed Fiat Spider where every ride seemed to hold a surprise, so it'll take a while to get used to a ride with no engine lights on!
