Ultimate E46 M3 for sale...

[AngryApples]

Having only just found out about this cars existence (made by the guys I bought my Coilovers from), I now find out it's for sale!

Phil, if I win the Euro tonight mate, you'll be getting a call..........

M3 E46 V10 Beast

[TheForceV4]

not if I get there first

Dont GPower do a conversion like this?

Absolutely love it!!!

[AngryApples]

If you go on Driftworks website there is a full blog on the creation

Work was done by DynoTorque who are next door to Driftworks

Just love the fact people have the balls (and cash!) to do stuff like this.

I'm not into Boy Racery crap, but quality engineering like this, I love.

[shibby!]

I like it!

But 50k!!!!!! wow, thats pretty serious money!

Can buy a whole M6 for 18k So thats some serious cash in perspective.

[Nedzilla]

Sounds Awesome but cant help think £50k is a bit much considering the price of used M5/M6.

I came across this video of an M5 the other day which also sounds pretty fantastic!

Neighbours just got an E60 M5, and given his past cars (Once had the "Best modified E36 M3 in the UK" according to Redline mag)I cant help but think this one's going to be getting some serious mods

Seen this car featured on lots of pages including stanceworks & Speedhunters, I think it looks incredible. I prefer it with the older wheels, but I think they might be a bit 'Marmite' especially for PH.

I'm sure it's an engineering marvel but it's too low, the wheels are too widely spaced and the rims are dreadful (all IMO of course).

The above pictures are from when it was being used for show by the looks of it. In the sale advert it just has CSL alloys, it's at a more reasonable height as well.

Or you could just buy a m5 for 20K. Doesn't make any sense to me...

Agree it would look great with CSLs and upped by a few cm.

Probably after dropping the E60 M5 on a motorway slip road and watching the look on his ever growing smaller face in the rear view mirror, it would make perfect sense.

Set of CSL wheels and CSL ride hight would fix it.

[ecain63]

If it looked OEM M3 with standard rims, ride hieght and immaculate bodywork then id say £50k was only slightly out of touch. But, it looks thrashed and 'boyed-up'. £25-£30k would get my interest.

Looks bloody awful! Those ridiculous drug dealer wheels and it's too low... I imagine the guy that built this 'gets it', yet how can the styling be so off!?

LMAO!
drug dealer wheels....because no-ones ever heard of Split rim ACSchnitzer only Halford specials. Raise it afew mm and its good to go and leave the M5/M6s behind. Someone will want it but imo it will be best kept on the track to use the power.

Call them what you like... They are still gash

I think it'll need raising more that just a few mm...

There's an E30 out there somewhere with the same conversion. I'd much rather that.

I'd be tempted if it looked a factory job under the bonnet. At CSL money though
