Your car must be a 2 door.
4 doors have window frames. I did have a Z3, it did not have a window frame, and I had lots of problems with the window. It would go too high before it stopped. The window regulator had an adjusting screw that stops it's upward travel, 4 door cars don't require this due to the window frame.

A weld on a threaded stud that mounts the window regulator in the center of the door had broken.
The broken mount caused simila rdoor closing, and air problems to what you discribe, due to the window going too high, but the window did not go down on its own.
