INTRO:
The M3 Coupe was one of two body styles introduced for the BMW E46 M3. Introduced for the 2001 model year, the E46 M3 was powered by BMW's S54B32 inline six engine.
This 3. 2L inline six engine produced 338hp in European spec, whereas North American market engines generated 333hp due to emissions restrictions. Two transmission options were available, the 6 speed Sequential Manual Gearbox (SMG), which is covered in this market, or the 6 Speed Manual. Production of SMG equipped E46 M3 coupes continued until 2006, when the next generation BMW E90 M3 debuted.
An M automobile never lacks clear distinguishing features. As with the iconic M3 E30, the M3 E46 is immediately recognizable as the premium model in its series thanks to numerous details. In particular, aesthetic changes such as widened fenders, special side skirts and the modified front apron catch the eye of every observer. These changes also serve an important purpose, mostly in terms of aerodynamics. This also applies to the so-called Gurney flap at the rear: the small spoiler lip noticeably reduces lift and thus improves to traction – crucial in faster corners.
HIGHLIGHTS:
This BMW E46 M3 SMG is fully equipped and comes with a bilstein performance suspension, strut brace and sunroof delete option. This E46 M3 SMG was recently imported from Japan with grade 4C. It is a superb example that just had a complete major service in UAE.

PERFORMANCE:
Outstanding performance is provided by the typical BMW M Series 6-cylinder engine. The 3. 2-litre S54B32 engine was built on the legacy of its predecessor. Nevertheless, it was an almost entirely new development. It is regarded as the pioneer of BMW’s now well-established high-rev concept, where its only time for the next gear at just under 8, 000 revolutions.
The striking front apron ensures that water and oil always remain in the right temperature window and that full engine power is available at all times. In addition, it enables the cooling of the car’s powerful brake system. With its generous openings, the apron also gives the M3 E46 an unmistakably bold visual character.
SMG:
Buyers of the third generation M3 were able to choose between the 6-speed manual transmission and the 6-speed SMG (sequential manual transmission). The latter is an automated manual transmission, which the driver can operate using the paddle shifters on the steering wheel or the gear lever in the center console. In contrast to the manual version, gear changes are always sequential and individual gears cannot be skipped.
TRACTION:
A limited slip differential on the drive axle was, of course, also standard from the start. The variable lock of the transfer case provides the car with a locking effect of up to 100 percent in different conditions for outstanding traction from the corners – and not least allows for spectacular drifts.
