The Attractions
The BMW M3 E46 is an enthusiast's darling. And for very good reasons. In addition to the fabulous 335 hp S54 straight-six, the E46 offers a perfect balance of technological equipment and driving pleasure.
These cars were conceived and purchased to be driven with panache, which makes it very difficult to find original examples in good condition. With its understated Steel Grey metallic paint and attractive date-coloured leather interior, this is a really good example of a car with great qualities.
It has not been modified in any way and the serial numbers are correct. Its quality is backed up by an ASI certificate and it was recently serviced at the official BMW network. The overhaul is valid.
The M3 E46 is one of the most rewarding driving sports cars produced in the last 25 years and this looks like a really good example.
