Golden Eye 007 was when I first heard of Z3 even though it appeared on screen for few minutes & car gadget hardly use.

[@MomentofZed]

For many this was the "wow, what is that?" moment!

Love the baby Z3 in the intro….got a Corgi 007 Goldeneye model for my dashboard but it’s far too big.
The 507 is a stunning car ❤

Can you give the birth-weight and length? What pretty blue eyes you have...
If you purchased a 507 new back in the day that $10k investment is now worth a couple $$ Million $$ or better. That's what I call the ultimate driving machine!!!
Thanks for the history lesson, cool video...

Would have been a great investment to say the least! 2 ounces and 2 inches btw.
