Hmm, that is awesome but, I still need to see the perfect slicktop, comp pack, six speed, rare color, low mines combination. That was what I thought would hit the jack pot, not this one. Are we sure thats not the ruble pricing?

100k for e46 m3? in good condition, low mileage and rare vin options for sure.
Also e46 m3 is the best m3 in all time IMO

Depends on how many get crashed and how devalued the dollar gets.

I guess I'll never understand the mindset of driving a car only 6800 miles in 20 years. Do people buy cars hoping they cash in one day? As an investment?

To each their own, of course, I'm just curious as to what drives the mindset.

Or maybe he has 50 cars and don't really have much time to put much mileage on them all.

Ha, I suppose that's possible.

I have a 2003 E46 M3 convertible *6 speed MT, 19" rims) with 33,000 miles in mint condition. Silver with gray leather. Considering selling it but am getting mixed advice on price because there are so few out there that have such low miles and have seen none even close to the same condition. Any advice?

Convertible, grey interior, and MY2003 are all going to work against you-- I'd expect you to get somewhere in the 30s.

Even 30 could be tough. I am sure it is nice regardless. The longer you hold it the more it will increase in value.

And yes, I think people selling ones with 6,800 miles are the type of people that have several cars and maybe even has a driver.

+1 verts just don't pull the money.

Peak E46 M3 would be...manual, slicktop, rare color, low miles, zcp comp package.
