This car is one of my childhood dream cars, especially in Alpine White and it has been a delight to own. The best part of ownership is how visceral the driving experience is with the E46 platform. I've owned this car since April 2021 and never over revved the engine or abused the car. Car is in good condition inside and out. Regular wear as expected of a from 2003, nothing worth noting. Engine is always properly warmed up before revving over 4k rpm. Adult owned and maintained, no donuts/drifting. The car isn't a daily so it hasn't been through stop and go traffic during my ownership. The only time I took the car out was the occasional cruise or weekend car meet. Drives like a dream and likes to be revved out. BMW definitely made a great track/street car this generation of M3.

I'm putting it up for sale because I want something along the lines of a truck or SUV at this point in my life. Hoping this car will go to an owner that enjoys and appreciates the E46 platform as much as I do. Most recent maintenance was done at SGV Bimmer and I highly recommend them for all things BMW. Vanos and rod bearings were done by previous owner and are good. The only thing I would recommend doing is switching back over to OE engine mounts for a smoother experience as it currently has a more track feel due to solid engine mounts. PPI welcomed. Thank you for reading the post.
