This combination makes the M3 1 of only 174. Powering the M3 is an exceptionally well maintained 3.2 liter 6 cylinder motor mated to a well sorted 6-speed manual gear box. As one would expect from an M vehicle, this 3 series comes completely loaded with every feature a driving enthusiast could possibly ask for. The M3 version of the E46 3 Series was produced in coupe and convertible body styles. The E46 M3 is powered by the S54 straight-six engine and has a 0-100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration time of 5.1 seconds for the coupe, with either the manual or SMG-II transmission. The skid pad cornering results are 0.89 g for the coupe and 0.81 g for the convertible.
