$29,000 - 127k miles - 6 speed manual - Central, NJ


Up for sale is the Iconic E46 M3, 6spd Car in 2002 Vintage. Big4 are done (3 + Cooling overhaul)Currently it has 127K miles on it. It is Carbon Black with Black Interior. Sunroof car. Purchased from the second owner on


9/4/2012. This was from a fellow enthusiast, on the old M3forum.netIt had 99K miles on it when I purchased it. I have put on27K miles in my ownership over the past 10 years. I have thoroughly enjoyed the car. It is a blast to drive, makes power everywhere thanks to the S54 and it is still a head turner. Rowing the gears with a 4.10 BMW Motorsports rear end is great. Acceleration is brisk and if you want to break loose, you can. I have not had any issues with the car and as you can see below in the maintenance section, I have been very diligent with it. Just passed NJ Inspection (Aug). Asking $29K for everything, all extra parts. Not willing to ship. Would like to have an in person transaction. Clean title in hand.
