Hi. I have lightly modified my 2003 E46 M3 over the years but may have to sell it. I'd be interested to know what folks think the value of this could be and if you'd recommend putting it back to stock or selling as-is? I have been using it for track days only for the last few years so it's done very little mileage during that period. Always kept in the garage. I've retained all the original bits which could be re-fitted back to the car. It is amazing on track - everyone that tries it comes back with a big grin on their faces!

Basic Spec:

2003 E46 M3 94k miles Silver. SMG gearbox. Black leather interior. CD Autochanger. Harman Kardon sound system.

Modifications:

- HSD Monopro adjustable coilovers front and rear
- AP 6 pot calipers and discs at front
- Pagid rS29 pads front and rear
- Braded brake lines front and rear
- Powerflex Rear trailing arm bushes
- Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 18” rims
- Federal 595-RSR 245/35 18” tyres
- Miltek style lightweight back box
- Sparco Sprint race seats
- 6-point harness for both seats (with standard seat belts retained)
- LED ‘facelift’ rear lights
- Parrot Bluetooth phone and audio system
- K&N air filter
- Front tow eye

Retained to be re-fitted if needed:
- Genuine BMW 19” diamond cut alloy rims
- Original front and rear dampers and coils
- 4 Kumho ECSTA tyres (265/235)
- Original leasther seats (fully electric)
- Rear stainless silencer
- Rear seats and panels

No modifications to engine at all. Very clean car all round. No rust anywhere. Front valence has some minor damage and would benefit from a respray.

Great spec, I'd put it back to standard to sell it though i think.

You'll get a lot more for all those track goodies selling them separately. Selling as a track car you'll just be giving them away and it will be harder to sell imo.

Leave anything on that you can't readily replace of course...

I hadn't noticed you no longer have the stock brakes.

Standard breaks appear on m3cutters fairly often.

As it is your audience of buyers is smaller and you're giving people reasons to chip you on the price.

Put it back to standard and I'll wager you get roughly the same for it and the parts you take off should fetch a tidy sum - again most bits will be easily moved on via m3cutters.
