The M3 E46 possesses distinctive features that easily set it apart as the premium model within its series. Its unique attributes draw the attention of every observer, showcasing the pinnacle of BMW design alongside the E39. Our E46 M3 boasts the power of the S54 straight six engine coupled with an SMGII 6-speed automatic gearbox. The inclusion of SMG introduces an entirely new dimension to the vehicle. The forceful jolts felt upon each shift, akin to the sensation of an Aventador, add an unparalleled rawness to the driving experience—enhanced by the single-clutch transmission. This rigidity significantly bolsters control, especially when navigating demanding back roads or our notoriously uneven streets. The responsiveness to throttle inputs has also been heightened, offering a much sharper and more immediate connection.
The sole challenge with these vehicles lies in finding one that has been impeccably maintained. In this regard, our offering excels with a mere 16600km on the clock—a dream come true for any collector. This car has a full set of books and partial service history, and driving it becomes an addiction, an irresistible urge that begs to be satisfied daily. Amidst our extensive experience with performance cars, the E46 still claims the sweet spot for us. Truly, this presents itself as a sound investment opportunity that’s hard to overlook.
