Thought I'd post a few on this one. Owned for around 18 months. I've mostly kept it OEM and focused on condition. Remapped by Evolve and with their Eventuri air box is producing 357bhp.







Although a couple of OEM plus mods have been carried out:

Not my preferred colour but unarguably a beautiful automobile in fine fettle

Very nice, have just bought an E46 M3 myself and plan on going a similar route with it. Which calipers are they and do they use the standard discs?

They're BMW Performance 6 pot calipers, made by Brembo. They use 345mm CSL discs which are slightly larger than standard. Currently having Boxster/996 Brembo 4 pot rears fitted (they've been painted to match) which go on standard rear discs. Head to M3cutters for a buying thread for adapter mounts if you plan on going the same way with the front brakes.

It's lovely to see an original, unmolested E46 M3 on here for a change. Everybody else's seems chav-tastic in comparison whilst your's looks like it's maintained that whiff of class, still quite telling (albeit subtly) of its price tag back in 2002. I'm sure you're enjoying exploiting its talents, nice work! smile

Very nice. I love Titainium Silver - it looks plain in photos but awesome in the light.
