Hello!
Selling my 2003.5 (came with updated facelift & LED tail lights) e46 M3 coupe. It has exactly 100,000 miles, rare and beautiful silver with black interior, SMG, xenon headlight option (from the factory), and navigation. The car has been well cared for, everything works, the interior is in good condition, and you could eat off the engine bay, a true OEM beauty. The car has a clean title (CarFax available) and has just gone through extensive 100k mile maintenance refresher (over $7k of preventative maintenance):
-Subframe reinforced (BIG DEAL- most E46 M3 owners drive in fear that
theirs can give out any moment, you will drive with 100% peace of mind)
-SMG Cluch replaced
-New brake pads, rotors, lines, fluid
-New oil filter & oil service
-New belts
-New bushings
-New struts
-Control arms
-Euro valve
-Alignment
NEEDS:
-The car was scratched/dented on the side from a minor parking lot side-
swipe (see pics of damage, its minimal), just needs a door panel, one side
skirt, and may need a door handle mechanism. (all in $100-$300 in parts
you can easily find genuine replacements). I can get an estimate for you
but it's not bad at all.
- Needs tires
- Light scratch on rear bumper (see picture)
- Light scratches front bumper/ needs bumper reflectors (see picture) (Whole new bumpers are $200-$300 if it really bothers you)
- Windshield washer fluid bottle is cracked
Mechanically, the car is 110% solid and waiting for a great run. I have a new M3 now but I did my daily commute to work in this one for the past year (so much fun!). It drives great, everything works, this is a gorgeous example and the fact is that any other M3 you would buy, you would have to do the above mentioned work anyway which (ask any e46 M3 owner) can get into the thousands quicker than you can get 0-60.
Great fixer pick up, this is a GEM! These cars only going up in value (they are surpassing the '08-'13 e9x M3 prices now). If just door panel is fixed, comparable examples are going for $15k-$20k ( for now
)
