Widely hailed as one of the best-looking, best-sounding, and best-handling BMW M3s yet made, the E46 generation débuted at the March, 2000, Geneva Salon. Styled by Ulf Weidhase, the newcomer was a deft blend of aggression and subtlety. Available in Coupé or Convertible guises, the E46 M3 was powered by a 3. 2-litre DOHC straight-six allied with a Getrag six-speed manual transmission. Interestingly, the latter could be specified with either a conventional or electro-hydraulically actuated clutch. Dubbed ‘SMG-II’ when shorn of a third pedal, it proved to be the fastest-shifting gearbox in the world. Credited with developing around 343bhp and 269lb-ft of torque, the compact four-seater was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5. 3 seconds and a restricted 155mph. In addition to all-round independent suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and power steering, the nimble BMW boasted a sophisticated M Differential Lock and Traction Control. According to the M Registry, 13, 052 Coupés and 7, 234 Convertibles were built to RHD European specification.
The Silverstone Edition was a highly limited production run of just 50 cars, with a very high specification finish. All were finished in Silverstone II Blue metallic with Dark Estoril Blue extended Nappa leather trim, complimented with Aluminium Cube trim, matching trimmed floor mats etc. This example also benefits from a high trim spec including Anthracite steering wheel, Harmon Kardon stereo, Digital TV, Sat Nav, 19inch Diamond Cut alloys, Bi Xenon lights and parking sensors.
