"The M3 is an OUTSTANDING automobile in every category. Performance is shockingly powerful and still fully controllable. With winter tires, the dynamic stabilty control makes this a 4-season car, even in Chicago snow. The car dows exactly what it is supposed to do exactly when it is supposed to do it. It is reliable, dependable, and aggressive in appearance while maintaining the interior luxury expected in a BMW. I may never own any other kind of car."

"My sons talked me into test driving a M3 when I decided to trade in (up) my Sebring. Long story short: I got an older car, added a little $$, and quadrupled my car experience. I just have to remember to always have a smile on my face to greet all those heads I'm turning!!"

"This car is truly awesome! It has never disappointed me. My car is now almost 7 years old but still looks and feels new. Every time I drive it, feels like I'm still driving a brand new car. The engine begs to be driven hard. Unfortunately, it's not always possible and responsible where I live. This is for every enthusiasts who crave for a perfectly balanced car that will perform flawlessly when asked. The only negative thing worth mentioning with this car is how it seems to attract very annoying people. Since new, it has been egged, scratched and the door lock cylinder popped twice. Even then, I love driving this car almost on a daily basis and whenever I get a chance. For those looking to buy a used E46 M3, you won't regret it. I can't imagine the time when I'd have to let mine go. 7 years and I'm still in love!"

"I'm almost 50 yrs. old and have two kids in college but driving my M3 w/ 6 speed stick, makes me feel forever young.. I bought 2002 coupe with 96,540 miles and I tell you it's worth every penny.. Best family sports car for the price and quality."

"Even though I have almost 100k miles on the car, it is still going strong with only very minor services. It still performs like the sports car it is, and outhandles anything I've seen on the road! Love it!"

"Supercar Power and handling along with bmw reliability make this the funnest car I have ever owned. There is a myth that these are expensive to maintain but its not much worse than any other car if you go to a garage that specializes in bmw because unfortunately the dealer really rips it to you so just don't go there and you will save lots of money"

"Had mine for a little over a month, 2002 Convertible. It doesn't ride smoothly over rough pavement, but, does it stick in corners! Try to get it up to somewhat higher than legal speeds when possible and it doesn't disappoint, quite willing in fact. Been yelled at by the wife at a bit over the century mark; she thought it was 85 or so. Did I say it is great going around corners? Love to find country roads early in the morning. With the seat heaters, am still driving with the top down in November. Wonderful! Expensive but worth the money."

"Drive this and you will be hooked. The performance of the M3 is what you dream about I have had my M3 for 8 months and I am still impressed with how well built this car is and the performance to take on (if you want to) Corvettes, Porsches, majority of V8's out there. To have this performance and be under 50k in price is amazing!!"
