Older 911 replacement? (archive)

I recently bought an '87 911 Coupe that is great, but frankly I would like some more creature comforts (ie AC that works, some assist on the steering, etc). I drive in lousy LA traffic and haul my 5 year old around (I understand I can get BMW to defeat the passenger airbag). Having a back seat would be nice, but I think I can live without it (and I love hatchbacks).

Any good arguments for the Z3 Coupe? I'm looking to spend under $40K, and closer to $30K is better. Does the sunroof had an inside cover (ie you can keep the sun off you)? New Z3 coupes can be had for well under invoice these days, as BMW can't seem to give the cars away...
