I'm currently driving my 10th BMW purchased new and my 4th M3 -- a G80 M3. But perhaps my favorite BMW of all time was my E46 M3, which I owned from 2005 to 2012. I ordered it with BMW Individual Sterling Gray paint and Imola Red leather -- loved that combo. Shortly after taking delivery I fitted Euro brake rotors and Velocity Motoring VB3 CSL replica wheels, along with 245/40ZR-18 front and 255/40ZR-18 rear tires. I think the Euro rotors (aluminum hats and cross-vented) confused some, who though it was a ZCP; it was not.

Years after I sold it, the 5th owner somehow found me. I sent him a copy of the original window sticker, which gone with the car but been lost along the way, and he sent me a photo. I was happy to see that the car was still in good hands.
