The E46 M3 was produced from 2000–2006 and is often considered the perfect balance of size, power, and analog driving feel.
It uses the S54 engine — a high-revving 3.2L inline-six with motorsport roots. Naturally aspirated, razor sharp, and one of BMW’s greatest engines.
The car is known for its balanced chassis, hydraulic steering, and iconic bulged fenders. A driver’s car, pure and mechanical.
For many enthusiasts, the E46 M3 is the definitive modern M3 — the last one before electronics started taking over.
