This 2006 BMW M3 convertible has 49k miles, and it was purchased by the owner in May 2020. Service this year has included replacing the valve cover gasket, fuel filter, oil pan gasket, differential pinion seal, and power steering belt pulley. Finished in Silver Grey Metallic over Grey Nappa leather, the car is powered by a 3.2-liter inline-six linked with a six-speed SMG sequential transmission and a limited-slip differential. Features include a black soft top, a carbon-fiber front spoiler and rear diffuser, 19″ M double-spoke wheels, an aFe Power air-intake system, xenon headlights, rear parking sensors, power-adjustable front sport seats, a Kenwood head unit, and automatic climate control. This E46 M3 is now offered by the seller on behalf of their spouse with the owner’s manual, service records, and a clean North Carolina title.
The car is finished in Silver Grey Metallic and is equipped with a black convertible soft top as well as xenon headlights, rear parking sensors, fog lights, rain-sensing windshield wipers, a rear lip spoiler, LED tail lights, and quad exhaust outlets. A carbon-fiber front spoiler and rear diffuser have been added. The Carfax report shows “minor damage” to the rear-left corner in a September 2020 entry.
The 19″ M double-spoke Style 67 wheels are mounted with Continental ExtremeContact tires. The car was factory equipped with Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), and braking is provided by four-wheel ventilated discs. Work in March 2024 included replacing the power steering belt pulley along with power steering lines and sway bar end links.
The power-adjustable front sport seats and door-panel inserts are upholstered in Grey Nappa leather, and the cabin features a black dashboard with Brushed Aluminum Shadow trim accents. Interior amenities include seat-position memory for the driver as well as cruise control, a Kenwood head unit, and automatic climate control. Cracks are evident on the driver seat’s upholstery.
The multi-function leather-wrapped steering wheel features M-color stitching and frames a 185-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a variable redline along with gauges for coolant temperature, oil temperature, and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 49k miles, approximately 7k of which were added under current ownership.
The 3.2-liter S54 inline-six was factory rated at 333 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed SMG sequential transmission and a limited-slip differential.

The battery was replaced in January 2024, and work in March 2024 included replacing the valve cover gasket, cabin filter, temperature switch, fuel filter, oil pan gasket, lower radiator hose, and differential pinion seal.
