    I still remember my dad’s from when these were new. This was the car that got me into cars.

    loving these reviews with Bill. He is so incredibly relatable, bright, and humble. A legend of ///M and top class for the brand.

    For me the E46 followed closely by the E92 are BMW’s best looking M3’s. Peak BMW design

    Nice vid ! Bill is such a fun guy, had a chance to talk to him last November at the Performance Center.. He's got that perfect blend story telling with an enthusiasm that he always displays! Love to to a review with him ,it would be so much fun!

      He is awesome! I gotta say: he makes our videos look better, without even driving the car hard. He's just fun to talk to, has great stories and best part: he's always gracious. Next step is to get him to sing.

    I love my e46 m3, it's a really good car. It was the car that got me into bmw's and into cars in general. I've gotta say though, I think it's a slightly overrated car. The steering is great, handling is great, it's fast, sounds awesome but I just think it's a car you get bored of quick. If you have a collection of 10 or more cars I think it's definitely one you need to have but if it's your only weekend car you'll definitely get bored of it. I genuinely feel bad saying that because I think it's one of the coolest cars of its time. Either way, still a great car.

    Thank you for the video! This brought back a lot of memories for me. I had a 2004 (E46) M3csl with SMG2 in Silver Grey Metallic with a Black leather interior. It had a 45mm front disk and the rear had a larger diameter piston.

      How did you like the SMG2?

      @@bmwblog I would still prefer a manual, but the SMG is extremely engaging and predictable. Sure, it doesn't shift instantly like modern double clutch boxes, but it is super rewarding when you get in tune with it. I would own one again.

    Haha Bill said "This poor car is never gonna to be the same" not "Sportscar"... followed by him pretending not to know how to use a clutch, he was implying he was going to destroy the thing

    With the limiter removed you can reach 174 mph flat out. Not bad for a car produced from 2001.

      Hey clown, according to Corvette Forum, the M4 beat the C8. Facts don’t care about your feelings boomer.
