@@DowntimeMedia that's the light on left, the light In the square between speedo and rev counter is brake system light (triangle with a ! and a circle round it) I had that light come on when my brake pipes rusted through
@@DowntimeMedia Its the traction control system light, I've had mine flag yellow from low brake fluid and red when a brake pipe burst. It stays on when you disable TCS/DSC but also flags when you have codes relating to brake errors in that department If that light stays on it means you're getting no input from the traction control, not other way round. It flashes on/off when tcs is actively kicking in. So it's either disabled for the launch on video or he's got an error code relating to TCS/DSC Flashing Yellow means it's kicking in Solid Yellow means it not active/needs checking (manually disabled or error code) Solid Red means there's a definitive issue in the system (error code plus car shuts off tcs/dsc)
It's not launch control, he just popped it in neutral, built up the revs then slung it into Drive. You can clearly see before he revved it up, he shifts into neutral and you can hear him throw it back into drive.
Ruby Malia It does not have a D on the gear selector. It does not have a torque converter. The transmission is identical to the manual E46 M3. The only thing different, is what is attached to the transmission.
@@nate7906 do you shift gears with the stick in the center console? Does it have a clutch pedal? If yes to both, it's a manual. Otherwise, it's an auto
250k an bmw is still running like a literal DEMON. Bmw brand is made for stuff like this no matter the mileage. Regular maintenance an your bmw will run
The clutch after like 3 of those launches:
*I have decided that I want to die*
67
It's an auto
Ruby Malia nope it is not an auto it has a clutch
U never have even driven a bmw have u
Ruby Malia it’s a manual with a computer controlling it
250k on the clock. Your brave doing launches!
David Ghaemi 250k aint much if it has been maintained well
Anything isn't much if it's been maintained well
Hanoi Menace #730 that’s true.
@@VintageSlide Read an article on a 1 million mile carrera once bought in 1973 the thing still looks fresh
That’s a beautiful thing to see...a healthy BMW
an M car with no dash lights is a beautiful thing to see
Dash light for Brake System/Fluid level is on

That bimmer is still going strong. Still love the sound of the straight six without those turbo’s. Thinking of buying an E46 M3 one day.
I bought a supercharged e46 years ago and it had so many problems but I still miss her
im thinking of getting an E36 M3
You want to buy any M car used you best be prepared with deep pockets. Its well worth it though, smile factor is everything!
this has a single turbo🤨
E92 s65 sounds better
Still a great car, 20 years later.
That s proper launch, with wheel spin , as all should be 🥱
Launch control that makes the car launch slower
Spinnin ain’t winnin!
Hei
Apparently these are considered "slow" by modern standards.Seems pretty fast to me
It actually is...it's just tuned
Yeah he’s done some work to it. Pretty slow by todays standards but very fun nonetheless
@@logoff didn’t sound or appear to be faster than stock to me; do you know something we don’t?
Hit 60 mph in just over 4 seconds. That’s what they did standard.
Casually puts sport
We all gonna ignore the odometer😁 this thing still rips 💪
not much
AM G - you’re what’s wrong with the car community. who says “up your car game” unironically 😂 douchebag
@AM G you dont even drive a AMG or M or a S/RS lol stfu you dont know how it feels
@AM G haha you're 100% a total goon. Probably don't have a car but if you do, guarantee its a fucking polo or something 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The sound is just awesome
The launch control in those are so instant
Im a simple man i see m3 e46 i like

High revving 3,2 engine no turbo love this car
I think its brilliant just for launching no pause nothing just boom gone!🔥
BMW💪❤❤❤
Damn, that is badass never knew these older ones had launch control
This is not stock
this is not launch control
Leo Martic it literally is
It's not launch control, he just popped it in neutral, built up the revs then slung it into Drive. You can clearly see before he revved it up, he shifts into neutral and you can hear him throw it back into drive.
This is exactly how lc works in this car

You clearly never raced off the line

BMW 💪
a light flywheel would make that rev way faster
Супер
BMW ЭТО БОМБА
Hold the traction control button down until you see the cluster has a yellow "Brake" light on for full control of the vehicle
Honestly thats pretty quick for 343hp
Просто бомба
Smooth
Sounds like something straight out of Forza Motorsport
Mama elle a diable en elle carrément l'auto !
When the smg shift you can sleep

Then to the fuel station and phone call to garage for XY sensor & clutch. SMG-Serious Money Gone🤦🏼♂️
It’s not smg3.
When I seen that 100 I thought it was mph 😂
That's the very reason I never would buy an M3 with 100k plus mileage.
Roberto Franke any car actually
