2001 BMW E46 M3 Touring
Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this professionally-built 2001 BMW E46 M3 Touring. BMW made exactly one M3 Touring in-house and enthusiasts have longed for their own ever since -- a few have been built over the years and well received within the BMW community.
The owner of this Touring, a friend of ours and owner of a local BMW shop, built this example as a personal project and has driven it regularly over the past year. He started with a clean 2001 xi (all wheel drive) chassis and carefully assembled the components for a seamless install. The donor 2004 M3 S54 engine had 79k miles on it and received new rod bearings, Vanos and a valve adjustment before being installed -- it now has 81k on it and that mileage is reflected on the M3 gauge cluster that was fitted. Low-mileage X3 3.91 diffs were installed and serviced along with a 330xi 6-speed manual with new clutch. The ECU was sent off for custom programing and the car has current emissions (call us for more details). Custom exhaust sounds good without being too loud.
New ASA 19-inch wheels wearing new Firestone Firehawks. Refreshed suspension with Bilstein
Sports and H&R springs. Brakes are new all around.
Clean CarFax, and although the chassis has higher mileage (200k+) it shows well. We believe the Orient Blue paint to be original with the exception of the hood, M3 front bumper and flares which were recently installed and painted to a nice standard. Interior is likewise in good condition and has desirable sport seats.
This wagon is fast, sounds amazing and drives well. The ride is firm but compliant and is comfortable for daily use. All of the "comforts" including A/C are intact and working. A truly unique car at home in any BMW enthusiast's collection. For more information about this 2001 BMW E46 M3 Touring for sale
