There's definitely been a Tribute coupe built based on a Z3M - it was the Dutch Tribute agent and it was on wires. Not sure if he's still around...
indeed, on a M roadster, was 'cheap' to buy, just 23k euro with just 117k km!, it made the roadster in a coupe.

Thanks for finding that. I found this by reverse searching the images you posted...

I can't tell the size of the tyres, but they look like 17". I'm going to source a cheap 16" wheel and see if I can make it fit. At least I am now confident that 15" is too small, unless you are basing the build on a 2.8 (or smaller).

It looks like a real bargain. It would be very difficult to build one for that price.
indeed it is, a Z3M with that low mileage to start with cost already more in most cases.
this one was build a few years ago, in the time were a Z3M could be bought for not to much, thats why it could be offered at that price and that compagnie build it themselves I believe, otherwise not possible for that money.

Post some pics when it’s done, go careful with that nice new paint.
This was my pride and joy 4 years ago. 4.7 V8 sounded gorgeous. Should’ve kept the reg number.

wow, well done for them, looks great and a nice thought that you do not have to worry about flaking chrome.

They seem to be on the rise price wise.
wow, thats a lot... maybe because they are making some special ones with those ferrari engines, those BMW base cars also are in the lift and this one is just a 2.8 with original interior/dash.

I can believe such, its a lot of work to get right, a lot of small things as well, many give up projects because of time passing by and the drive for the project a bit gone or different circumstances during the time of a project.

so, well done for you beer
