Yes, you can use a tow dolly to tow a BMW Z3 with a manual transmission, but it's essential to ensure that the rear wheels are off the ground. This prevents potential damage to the transmission and drivetrain, as the rear wheels would otherwise rotate while being towed. Always check the vehicle's owner's manual for any specific towing guidelines or restrictions. Additionally, ensure that the tow dolly is rated for the weight of the Z3.
