This is a turn key E46 M3. I have been collecting cars for years and it is tough to find another one as clean inside and out as this one. You will be hard pressed to find another 2004 E46 M3 as clean and immaculate as this one in regards to mechanically. This car looks and drives great. I would rate the Interior a 9.0/10. The Front dash is very clean no cracks. The Exterior of the car is a solid 9.0/10. The front bumper has minor stone marks from driving. Front bumper has not been drilled for license plate holder, the lip spoiler on the back is all factory and original. The paint is smooth and looks excellent under the sun, always hand washed, recently professionally detailed. The exterior color Jet Black, is the nicest color BMW has offered to date. It looks very sharp with the 19 DPE FORGED Wheels, wrapped in a like New set of Continental tires. I was part of the design team that helped develop this wheel over a decade ago, at the time ElusiveFX was the Midwest's Largest DPE Dealer.
Under the hood the car features the revolutionary S54 Power Plant (3.2L 333HP). These engines have been noted to be one of the best M engines produced by BMW M GmbH. The E46 M3 in the early 2000's was known to be the car out performing every car in its class and is one of the most recognized M cars in the market place today. The engine of this car is completely stock, it has never been modified, it has no aftermarket parts. The stock engine provides plenty of power. Whether you are buying this for yourself or your son/daughter, this M3 is a true gem.
No expense has been spared to properly store, maintain and address all preventative maintenance on this M3. I do not need to sell this car and would prefer to keep it, but if this M3 goes to the right home I will be happy. This is a true collectable as these cars age it is very difficult to find another one. This car has two very rare options. The manual seats, as well as the slick top, sunroof delete. The extra weight savings is noticeable. The 2004 was the most sought after year to own, since it was when BMW had added all the updates to the E46 M3 model. LED Tail Lights, longer trunk handle strip, and the Rod Bearing Recall issue was not prone to 2004+ model E46 M3's as BMW had rectified the problem by then. Age, mileage and condition is the largest contributing factor to this car along with all original keys, which are included with this sale.

FAQ:
Q: Does the car have any rust? A: No. This car has no rust on the exterior body anywhere. It has always been a southern car, originally in California and then in Texas. It was transported to my private collection in Illinois in an enclosed trailer and has been stored indoors in a temperature controlled garage.
Q: What is the market value on this car, and where is it headed? A: Comparable examples are going for $30K+. Please feel free to use EAG as a reference for comps, as they are the only ones specializing in clean low mileage 04+ E46 M3's. The market on these cars are on the upward trend, as this model year is the most popular E46 M3 since it is a 2004+ and has all the updates such as the LED Tail Lights, No Rod Bearing Recall Issue (Since this is something BMW Rectified by then), Longer Trunk Strip. This car will only continue to rise, similar to how we have seen the E30 M3 spike in price over the past few years. This is an excellent buy for anyone looking to daily drive, track, or collect. Get your money out of the stock market and put it into this car, it's more of a for sure bet!
Q: Can you tell me more about the wheels/brakes?A: For those that are not familiar with the DPE FORGED wheels, they a full 2-pc forged light weight aluminum wheel made with T-6061 Aluminum. They are constructed with motorsports in mind, and help reduce the unsprung weight of a factory wheel. Keep in mind the car also does have the upgraded competition package 2-pc floating rotor brake package, they are a larger diameter than the original factory brakes. The kit transforms the 1-piece 328mm front rotors on the M3 to the much larger 345mm floating 2-piece rotors from the BMW M3 CSL edition.
