Ronin 09 Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 Denham, Do it. Do it (starsky & hutch voice) My mate has a 2002 M3 SMG II it is the business. When I was looking at the R32 I considered E36 M3, but if you do go for one, go the 3.2 (I know it has been said before). The E36 M3 3.2 is not much changed to the E46. I used to own a hella modified E30 323i, I can put you on to some BM experts if you need mate Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/40690-to-sell-the-line-or-not/page/3/#findComment-839951 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS8_Gohan Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 BMW badging can be followed literally to a certain extent. 320i - 2 ltr 325i - 2.5ltr .... etc. 328 is 2.8 and 147kw's BUT there was an update of that engine 97 or 98?? (Maybe earlier)I'm not sure. Power stayed the same, but torque was increased noticably. So if you're looking for Coupe/Convertible 328i's, try and find the update model. Only the 330i's, 530i's, etc have the 3ltr engines, 170kw's. It seems here that quite a lot of ppl know other ppl with E46 M3's (myself included) and we know these cars are rock solid, and popularity in endurance races show this as well. M Roadster, M Coupe, M3. I noticed that factory recall was for a 3 month span of engine production. Considering the car has been produced since beginning of 2001, 3 or 41 months and counting is hardly bad considering the level of technology in the engine. I know the Bathurst cars are far from factory, (altho the E46 M3 was running stock exhaust, and maybe 2 other mods, ie chip/re-map, intake. Pretty much stock as a rock) but that's why i said the 323i "that's a car with 127kw's out of the factory. Bout 1350kg as well. Our family has had 320i, 528i, and now 530i looking towards an E46 M3 a little later - Not ONE mechanical problem at all! 10+ years of BMW's, 3 diff models, QLD trips, ski trips, etc not one engine problem. All the Straight Six family. Only problem was with the rear left electric window switch on the 528i Trust me, you won't be disappointed with an E46 328i, or E36 M3. cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/40690-to-sell-the-line-or-not/page/3/#findComment-840174 Share on other sites More sharing options...
