This 2002 BMW E46 M3 costs $99,999 USD

The BMW M3 has been on the market since 1986, and since then it has become the favorite model of the Bavarian manufacturer among sports car enthusiasts. It was offered in coupe and convertible body styles until 2014, when it was rebranded as the high-performance variant of the 4 Series, the M4. It was produced in several generations, and in 2000 the E46 3 Series arrived on the market. A car from this generation, the 2002 BMW E46 M3 is for sale and the owner is asking $99,999.

The car is powered by a 3.2-L naturally aspirated 6-cylinder engine with 333 hp (248 kW) and 269 lb-ft (365 Nm) of torque. This is enough to push the 1,570 kg (3,461 lb) car to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 5.2 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph).

This BMW E46 M3 is finished in Imola red and is in excellent condition, so it is not surprising that the owner is asking quite a lot of money for it. It has rarely been driven, which is proven by only 18,750 km (11,700 miles) on the odometer.

Although 22 years old, the car is still owned by the first owner who bought it new. Its exterior is in excellent condition and has been well maintained, according to the photos. The interior has also been well-maintained over the past two decades, and although the leather-trimmed seats have creases, it’s still not an insurmountable problem. There is not much information about the car and what is known is that it has a clean Carfax report.

2025 Porsche Cayenne GTS

In 2023, Porsche revealed the facelift versions of the Cayenne S and Cayenne S E-Hybrid models, and now the offer has been expanded with the new GTS version.

The car in the photos is finished in red with black door sills and wheel arch bumpers. It is equipped with an adaptive suspension that provides stability and exceptional driving comfort, a dark bronze sports exhaust system tailpipes, bigger cooling air intakes, dark-tinted headlights and tail lights, red brake callipers, and High-Gloss Black side skirts, front inlays , side window trims and wheel arch extensions. The chassis technology is taken from the Cayenne Turbo GT model and all components and control systems, such as Porsche Traction Management (PTM) and the optional Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC), are specifically designed for optimal on-road performance. A carbon rear diffuser and an exhaust system with centrally located tailpipes are part of an optional package that reduces the car’s weight by an additional 25 kilograms. It is mounted on 21-inch RS Spyder-design wheels finished in anthracite gray.

The cabin is lined with dark leather and Alcantara, while suede-like fabric covers the roof lining, armrests and door panels, as well as the center panels of the eight-way-adjustable sports seats. Additional equipment includes a fixed panoramic roof, Porsche Driver Experience with a curved digital instrument cluster, Bose surround sound system, ambient lighting, and a heated GT sports steering wheel. For a more customized look, two GTS-specific interior packages in Carmine Red or Slate Gray Neo are available.

The Cayenne GTS is powered by a 4-liter biturbo V8 engine with 500 hp (368 kW) and 487 lb-ft (660 Nm) of torque, mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission that sends power to all wheels. The power has been increased by an additional 40 hp and 40 Nm of torque compared to the previous GTS version, which is enough to push the car from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.4 seconds with a top speed of 275 km/h (171 mph).

2025 Dacia Spring starts at 10,990 euros

Two months ago, the Romanian automaker unveiled the redesigned 2025 Dacia Spring, currently its only electric model. At that moment, all the details about the vehicle were published, except for the price. Now we know that too. The Essential version will cost 16,900 euros (including VAT), while the Expression and Extreme versions will cost a little more (up to 19,900 euros including VAT).

Most EU member states still offer subsidies for electric vehicles, which means lower prices that will go from 11,800 euros for the Essential, 13,800 euros for the Expression and 14,800 euros for the Extreme. However, Dacia has prepared special prices for all customers who order this model. This means that the price for the Essential version will start from 10,990 euros, while the Extreme version will start from 13,990 euros. Also, in some countries, everyone who orders the Extreme version by the end of May will receive a 400 euro discount.

The new redesigned edition brings a revised front grille, front LED lights, new logo, redesigned fenders, while the charging socket remains in the center of the hood. Redesigned rear part reminiscent of the Sandero Stepway with LED lights connected by a black strip, which also integrates the brand name. Despite the improvements, the car still weighs less than a ton (984 kg). Dacia also offers a wide range of body colors (6) including two new ones: Safari Beige and Brick Red.

The interior of the new Dacia Spring is now much more practical. The seats are covered with dark eco leather with brown stitching. The steering wheel is adjustable in height for the first time, and behind it is a digital instrument panel with a 7-inch adjustable screen. The media control system is standard from the Essential and Expression packages. Also, the volume of the luggage space has been increased to 308 liters.

When it comes to the powertrain, the Dacia Spring is still powered by a single electric motor with 45 or 65 hp (34 – 48 kW). It is equipped with a 26.8 kWh battery that enables a range of 220 kilometers. Many will say that the range is too short, but research has shown that buyers of this model drive an average of 37 kilometers per day, so 220 km is quite enough.
