Because I've just recently bought an E46 M for my daily, I have to say that it is extremely difficult to find one this nice. There are many in the market that are just crap and beaten to death...and consequently, are traded for much less. I'm just sorry that I didn't see this prior to buying mine.
To the seller...good luck. I think your ask is very fair. This is very nice example.

Considering I picked up an 09 328i with sport package with 34k miles this past year for 28k, this car would be so much more fun for 5+k...unfortunately (or fortunately, 
) just picked up a 87 930s and daily is 2010 X5M, so wife would definitely divorce me if I even mentioned yours...plus she is not learning to drive a manual on either! Sweet ride, you should get near ask, can't beat a well cared for enthusiast car! Thumb up!!!

Hey scca guy. My son was in the market for a like new e46 m3 like yours and looked for months. He bought one from Hancock motors in San Diego 2 weeks ago for $33,800. Yours is priced perfectly and is the current fair market price for something in that condition. Someone will get a great car for the money. GLWS.

This is exactly why the "Pelican" site DOES NOT allow ANY responses on the "Car for Sale" forum. Too many Numb-nut comments displaying poor judgment with their "insight" poorly reflects upon site management.
Don't miss this: REGARDLESS of what the buyer is "asking" - it is his/her car and unless "asked" for - should be left alone. I for one, do not recall the seller asking for advice, opinions, values, etc.
I haven't been here for a long, long time but would surely choose NOT to post a car for sale after seeing this "FS" attempt. Geez!

Heh I find it kind of funny that the only time sellers get upset about these comments is when they have a little bit of truth to them.
If someone posts a fairly priced car and some jackass responds with a lowball, all the other comments call out the jackass. If someone posts a car that's priced steep, someone eventually mentions that and then a million comments follow arguing whether it's ok or not to chime in with what the fair price is.
Either way, if you're kind of looking to sell if someone gives you the right amount of money, I don't see why you'd get upset about someone offering you bit under the fair value. If you're actually trying to sell the car, price it to the market, rather than argue with people about how it's priced fairly already.
BTW I would most definitely turn it back to stock and sell off the parts, you never recover the value from "bundle" deals like that. Especially on a super low mile mint car.

What the hell does working at a BMW dealer have anything to do with knowing the value of a car that hasn't been made in 8 years? Most bmw dealers haven't figured out the enthusiast market for E46's yet, in fact they're typically the cheapest place to buy.
And honestly, a search on cars.com in my area yields a bunch of cars right in this price range. Rock on scca!!!

My comments earlier were never to insult, I just happened to be in the market for such a car as a daily driver and come across many of them, also have a friend who works at a BMW dealer and we know the values, its a great car you have SCCA guy, I just wish it was more inline in what I have been seeing. One poster is correct, sell off the wheels and tires instead of bundling, bundling you wont recoup your investment. If you decide to sell it for the amount I was suggesting earlier, let me know.
