This is because they are so sought after compared to the M Roadster which is relatively dynamically flawed due to a less stiffer body. I have had an M Roadster and i still maintain however that it is genuinely scary stuff as long as you get the top model (i think 315bhp in the US), you will not be disappointed!!! You can always get the 3.0 Coupe in the US which is nearly as fast to 60mph...
i raced a clio 182 in my E39 BMW M5 and it shocked me how fast those little cars are!! strip it out completely and it'll certainly be a wicked car around the twisty stuff!
yep i now have the car, it is AWESOME, bought it from south london. being the only one in the country it definitely IS the car you raced!! small world eh? plus my name is also Nick! weird...
nickm43 you actually did better than you thought!! the Z3M you raced is the car i am buying in the morning! it has 370bhp so ur clio is pretty bloody nippy!
The Z3M Roadster and Coupe are mechanically identical (as is power), the only different is a metal roof! The power changed to 325bhp when the S54 M3 engine was put in both from 2001-on. The early S50 engines were rated at 321bhp.
pps, the word DUMB is not spelt dum. Man you really must be a retard, you got it all so wrong, trying to teach me about my Z3 M (i have two)! I suggest you get a life.
It's an S reg there for it's 321 brake, power went up to 325 brake (as cw205mi16 has said) after 2001 which would make it a 51 plate, which it isn't. I suggest you brush up on YOUR cars.
why are m coupes SOOO much more expensive than normal roadster Ms =[[[[[[[
its like 6 - in some cases 10 thousand dollar price difference on ebay. suckss to badddd cause i want an M coupe!!!! UUGHHH

You did get dogged to be fair z3m has 325bhp standard not 315 so its no disgrace.

Euro-spec z3M actually has 315 BHP if it was a '01 or '02. Earlier versions with the S52 engine had a fair bit less.
