Up for grabs via consignment sale is a beautiful driver ready e46 M3. This coupe sports just over 111k miles and the almighty 6 speed manual transmission with three pedals.

Exterior: This car is one of the few e46 M3’s that hasn’t been abused, and this shows with the paint. No clear coat failure, no oddities either. Some repainting has been done to misc panels, we have documented receipts for this as well as paint measurements. The body is straight, only ding being in the lower portion of the passenger fender. There is a slightly visible line where a clear bra was on the nose panel of the hood. Otherwise, all panels secure, no rust or corrosion and in great condition.

Interior: It’s shockingly tough finding a grey e46 interior as tidy as this one. We typically see more signs of wear. However this M3 feels well loved when seated inside. Drivers bolster has the usual wear on the upper with light discoloration on the lower. Passenger is clean and clear. Dash, climate control, and center console are all clean, lacking the usual button wear and scuffing around the radio controls that you see with these cars. Rear seats in great condition as is the carpet, car comes with factor floor mats. All electronics work as they should, pixels are present on both main cluster and climate control. Headliner is tight. Rear view mirror suffers the usual gas separation but is definitely minimal compared to most.

Mechanical: This car purrs. There is something about a stock s54 that is so unique. This car has thousands in receipts within the last 20-30,000 miles revolving around cooling system, ignition components, Vanos and more. We can provide these records upon request. No leaks, no odd noises, vehicle fires right up with zero hesitation. No smoke or undesirable exhaust notes. Stock 19 inch wheels with healthy tires. Car pulls strong through every gear, clutch has lots of life with a steady pedal throw and no inconsistencies. Steering is tight, brakes are healthy. Oil is clean and regularly changed, we have proof via invoices. Rear subframe was ice blasted and inspected for cracks, it is healthy and structurally sound. Vehicle was originally SMG but professionally converted by a shop in Colorado years ago.

Great mileage, tidy interior, healthy paint and desirable wheels makes this E46 M3 one worth investing in. You can feel when these cars have been “messed” with, and this one is not that. Car is sold with a clean, spare full set of 18” E46 M3 wheels with winter rated tires.
