BMW M3 Convertible

The E46 BMW M3 was previewed at the 1999 International Motor Show in Germany as a concept resembling the actual car very closely. The final production M3 was later launched in October 2000 at the Geneva Motor Show. The E46 M3 boasted a 3.2 litre straight six producing 343bhp, and achieving 0-60 in just a touch over five seconds. The twin dual exhausts and flared wheel arches showed that the M3 meant business, but in a somewhat subtle and perhaps more refined manner than we see with some of today’s equivalents. As with all M cars, you knew you were going to be in for a treat once you got it out on the open road. The effortless acceleration and sublime handling had motoring journalists salivating, with many proclaiming it to be the ‘best M3 yet’. A bold statement considering the success of the E30 and E34 models.

The BMW M3 Convertible offered here at Autostorico is a 2004 “04” plate example which has covered just 45,388 miles from new. Finished in Silver Grey metallic with Cinnamon leather interior this stunning, manual, M3 has a comprehensive service history most recently carried out by Park Lane BMW at 41,362 miles.
