Sources & notes
- This record describes the stated 2000 U.S. 2.3 Roadster Manual only. Other model years, body styles, transmissions, suspension packages and wheelbase variants require their own specifications.
- Fuel economy uses the exact EPA model-year, engine and transmission record with current adjusted ratings. Preliminary or original brochure estimates are not substituted.
- Metric dimensions are converted from BMW’s U.S. published inches using 25.4 mm per inch; conversion does not increase source precision.
- The dimension table does not explicitly define mirror inclusion, which remains unverified.
- Z3 2.3 is a model designation for a 2.5-liter engine. Roadster and coupe have different lengths, heights and curb weights; this record preserves its exact body.
