E46 M3 Sold more than E9X M3s!
I have always been under the assumption that the latest Ms sold better than their predecessors. But then I was reading an article and saw this sales chart for M3s for the past 10+ years. Clearly the LCI e46M3s were the best sellers - but they were cheaper as well. Just thought I'd share.
