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.
