No way I am thinking on getting an e46 and this banger drops

[vladimeister.]

I think that another thing all E46 owners should get is the BlueBus. Its the absolute best bluetooth solution for these cars and adds steering wheel controls to the OEM steering wheel buttons as well as displaying the current song playing on the head unit.

- Control arm bushings
- Subframe bushings
- coolant hoses
- subframe bushings
- vacuum lines
- drivetrain bushing and support mounts
- valve cover gasket

-ofc your oil changes and general maintenance

basically anything thats rubber should be replaced and serviced before upgrading/modding!

lmk if im missing something

Love my 330. Turns a lot of heads and aged super well.

they need to put E46 is production again with few modern touches as the game publishers remaster the games, just a great car to drive

Just got my manual 325i for $2, 750. There are absolutely no issues so far drives as fun as my f82!

[thisguyshorty]

Sadly my 323ci coupe E46 got more recognition than my current 135i E82. Still have an E46 in the stable though.

[glennpotter]

I bought a pristine e46 recently 👌🏼I love that car

How perfect of a moment you guys are building up on this.
Just got a 330ci 5spd manual and have been enjoying the build. Just might get some wheels from you guys soon!

I’ve owned both an E36 and E46 as a daily driver. I’d definitely go with the E46 if you can only pick one car for everything. It’s much more comfortable, the interior doesn’t fall apart (as badly as the E36), and it’s actually pretty quick compared to regular traffic (in 330ci spec).

Obviously try to get a manual, but if you can only afford the auto it still handles amazing and the engine sounds glorious with the right exhaust. The car still puts a smile on my face after two years.

Always had a soft spot for these. And wow do they still look hella good.

[melvinmartinali]

Just bought a e46 325 coupe it needs a bit of love and work but noting that cant be solved and for the price of 1250 and 23400km i cant complain. Fell in love whit the car om the first drive it drives like a dream!

I have a 99 323i M52TU -Alpine White with 71k, automatic and it was one owner and always babied and has all records from BMW from 1999. I always let it warm up and drive it like a grandma I'm happy with this, it will last forever.

[dogman]

I have a 330xi with zhp cams and a 2005 330i. Both have 6 speeds. Make sure you check the vacuum and ccv! There's also an o ring on the dipstick and a line on the intake that are common areas for failure on these old cars.

Love the vid 🔥🔥🔥 Chevy Volt video is gonna be

[jdrifts]

I have 320ci since 1 and a half year. Underpowered but insane fun, especially in touges and some illegal stuff😂. If you want a fun car, this is perfect. If you want a daily, don't do it. Don't get me wrong, I daily mine & it never left me stranded, but its old, sealings are giving up, wind becomes louder, if you are on coils like me u feel every bump, its noisy af in there. So city/touge fun driver - perfect. Daily highway - ass

Before 3 weeks i got a e46 325i 2003 with low miles on it and no rust i think its time to upgrade this old bmw
