Any original E46 M3 owners?

Ordered my 2006 Estoril/Cinnamon and still have it (+1 AW track car). This is it at delivery:

F me that is a dream combo. Sell it to me immediately.

Original owner with 171,000 miles. Ordered it while stationed (Army) in Germany back in 2004.

Thread turned out amazing. Keep it going gents. Love seeing when vapers and prior WRX owners didn't own them.

I must say it is pretty impressive to see original owners on here with cars well over 150K miles! I'm assuming pretty much every gasket and electrical component just shy of the wire harnesses have been replaced?

It's interesting because some plastic and electrical pieces last a very, VERY long time, while some just don't age well at all on this car.

I think the only thing that would make it better are more delivery day pictures.

LMAO I wonder if thats even possible. Buy every part new from the engine block down to the tail light gaskets and build yourself a new e46 m3 🤣

Along with some FCP warranty!

I follow you Instagram. The black series is one of my all time favorites. I love your taste in cars. Cheers!

If you replace every part on the car can you be considered an original owner?

Yeah seriously. After this engine will be complete I will have a brand new car. Not sure wether to be happy or pissed off...

I actually had to earn that one 😂. It's a blast to drive no doubt, but honestly the M3 is still an amazing car in comparison.

Original owner of 05 vert... 128km so like 80k miles. Had an 02 coupe as well. Best car I’ve ever owned...only thing that has failed in 15 years is a coil pack. Did a vanos/hub inspection again this spring and looks mint. Subframe as well. Couldn’t be happier

Hang on, you were 15 and bought a brand new e46 m3? Do tell this tale lol! Awesome!
