HaHa! Glad to say I've owned 2 in the past, both SMG II & convertibles.

Had mine for 11+ years. During this time its seen numerous track days (road racing, 1/4, 1/8, autocross etc), canyon runs and is now my dd. The vid reminds me of how much fun this car is. Even though its not as fast or refined as my E90, it has a unique personality and definitely holds up. That's why its a keeper.

Had one (SMGII Coupé) loved it, if I had the time place and money I would have kept it for collection. I think it's one of the greatest cars BMW has built.

Just bought this baby 3 weeks ago. My second E46 M3, manual this time, wasn't a big fan of the previous SMG. Spotless example, low mileage.

Could have bought an E90 one but much prefer the E46. Gets an awful lot of attention. Couple of random people have come up to say how beautiful the car is.

Love the E46 M3, specially the Estoril blue.

Forgot to mention durable

Before I purchased my M6 Coupe, I owned a Carbon Black E46, I had over 225,000 miles on it when I traded it in, and it was still running great. Loved that car, and thought it was better looking, particularly the interior (e.g., it had functional cup holders) than the E90, so I decided to hold out until the F13 came out. Now I love the F13.

But what would I do with my E93? The black one around 0:40 sounds BA!

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the e46 M3, but the vid was pretty cheesy. That said, better than anything I could put together.

Dude. WOw.

Amazing wheels I can't even tell what they are? Look kind of like a cross between Advan RS-D and some Kinesis wheels.

More info and/or pics please!

I guess I'm the only one that doesn't love the e46. It's ok and was very nice for the time it was created in but even then the design was starting to look dated. People (stupidly) make fun of Chris Bangle on here but he brought BMW design into the 21st century.

Also, the current 335i sounds better IMHO.

Very nice. I also like the "adult video" signage in the background.
