Description
A rare opportunity to own a late-production BMW M3 E46, finished as one of the very last models produced in 2006, marking the end of an iconic era for BMW M cars. These final-year examples are becoming increasingly sought after and represent a strong future classic.
This example has covered just 99,500 miles, which is considered low for its age, and comes with the highly desirable 6-speed manual gearbox, delivering the raw and engaging driving experience the E46 M3 is known for.
The car remains completely original and unmodified, exactly as it left the factory - something that is becoming increasingly rare. It has clearly been well maintained throughout its life and presents as a genuine, unspoiled example.
It benefits from full service history up until 2022, at which point the car was placed into storage. Since then, it has been maintained with oil changes around each MOT before being stored again, showing continued care even while off the road.
We acquired the vehicle from the previous owner, who made the decision to sell due to relocating abroad, and we are now looking to find it a deserving new home.
Finished with a black leather interior, the car is well specified with factory options including:
Harman/Kardon premium sound system
Electric adjustable seats
DVD satellite navigation system
Climate control
Cruise control
Multi-function steering wheel
Original M3 styling and trim throughout
The convertible soft top operates as it should and offers enjoyable open-top driving when desired.
As with many E46 models, there is light bubbling on the front wings, a known and common cosmetic issue, presented honestly.
This is a straight, original example that has not been modified or abused, making it ideal for enthusiasts or collectors seeking a modern classic with strong long-term potential. Cars like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find in such original condition.
For the full asking price, the car will also come with a fresh service for added peace of mind.
A rare chance to secure a late, manual, unmodified E46 M3 that represents both an enjoyable drive and a smart investment for the future.
