2001, carbon black with imola red seats, 150,000kms.
Picked he up from toronto last night, had a blast driving her all the way back here!

Overall, i'd say that the condition is an 8/10. Where the rating 10 is a 2005 M3 with 100kms that I had driven before and it was literally mint.

Why 8, there are some imperfections on the paint from stones and it shows swirls, would need a nice 5 layer polishing , it has a blown speaker in the back ( i think), rear tires about 40% left, the diff needs a flush and some knocking coming from the rear left shock, and the passenger window has a bit of a rattle sometimes :s

Other than that, shes all tight. I used these flaws to negotiate with the seller and I am pretty much still in my budget!

Overall i am really happy so far!

Now i need to pass an inspection for the saaq. Can anyone recommend a place?
 
check my e46 m3 log which i posted here. it contains the differential noise problem and its solution. the rear noise knocking was broken rear springs , the end of the rear coil snapped at the bottom, thats why my rear was lowered a bit for free.

I had broken springs, too. This is when I decided to put PSS coilovers! The car should come stock with coilovers like this!

sadly it does not , it shares the same problems are other e46's , broken rear springs. The germen loves to seperate the rear shock from the spring .... I actually prefer the one complete strut design like the S2000.
