2002 BMW E46 M3

This 2002 BMW M3 convertible has 23k miles and is finished in Steel Grey Metallic over black Nappa leather upholstery. Power is provided by a 3.2-liter S54 inline-six mated to a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential, and the car is equipped with a power-retractable black soft top, xenon headlights, fog lights, and 18″ Style 67 wheels. The cabin has been outfitted with a Bavsound audio system and is further appointed with power-adjustable front sport seats, automatic climate control, and a BMW Business CD head unit. Acquired by the seller in 2019, this E46 M3 convertible was previously listed on BaT in September 2020 and is now offered at no reserve with manufacturer’s literature, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title in the seller’s name. The car is finished in Steel Grey Metallic (400) and features a black power-retractable soft top. Additional exterior details include xenon headlights, fog lights, fender vents, and four polished exhaust outlets. The driver-side door-lock actuator requires replacement and a dent in the right rear quarter panel can be seen in the gallery below. The 18″ M double-spoke Style 67 wheels are mounted with 225/45 front and 255/40 rear Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires that have production-date codes from 2021. The car was factory-equipped with Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), and braking is handled by four-wheel ventilated discs. The power-adjustable front sport seats feature debossed M logos on the headrests, and they are upholstered in black Nappa leather that extends to the rear bench and portions of the door panels. Brushed Aluminum Shadow trim accents the cabin, and interior amenities include cruise control, automatic climate control, and a BMW Business CD head unit connected to a Bavsound audio system. A smartphone mount has been added to the right of the head unit, and a USB port and auxiliary input jack take the place of the factory 12-volt power outlet. Bubbling is visible on the passenger door handle and scratches are present on the center console. The multi-function leather-wrapped steering wheel features M-color stitching and frames a 185-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a variable redline along with gauges for coolant temperature, oil temperature, and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 23k miles, approximately 4k of which were added by the seller. The 3.2-liter S54 inline-six was factory rated at 333 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. The seller notes that the rod bearing recall service was performed in May 2003. An oil change was most recently carried out in October 2023, per the Carfax report. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. The Carfax report is free of accidents or other damage.
