Finished in Topaz Blue Metallic over a grey leather interior, this 2002 BMW M3 Convertible was modified under the care of the prior owner beginning in 2009, including converting the 6-speed SMG transmission to manual operation. It showcases a rebuilt and blueprinted 3.2-liter S54 engine by VAC Motorsports with Carillo rods, JE pistons, an Active Autowerks exhaust, and an Active Autowerks Stage 2 Gen VI supercharger kit with methanol and fueling systems. The car also features a PFC big brake kit, Bilstein PSS10 coilovers, Vorsteiner body components, an Alcantara steering wheel, carbon fiber interior trim, Boston Acoustics speakers, AutoMeter auxiliary gauges, and 19” BBS wheels. Recently serviced with a new clutch, belts, fluids, filters, and tires, this custom supercharged E46 M3 is now being offered for auction out of Tennessee with approximately 69k miles showing on the odometer.
The exterior is finished in Topaz Blue Metallic with a power-operated black convertible top. It has been modified with Vorsteiner bodywork, including a VRS vented carbon fiber hood, GTS3 front spoiler, and a V-CSL boot lid and rear diffuser. Other modifications include a mini antenna, Depo corner lights, SPP Superwhite fog lights, Predator Orion V2 angel eye headlights, and retrofitted OEM LED taillights. The car rides on aftermarket 19” BBS CH wheels dressed in new tires. Some minor imperfections are noted on the front end, although the exterior is said to be in excellent overall condition with a ceramic coating recently applied. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The cabin is appointed with grey leather upholstery, including 8-way power seats with adjustable lumbar support. An OEM Alcantara-wrapped sport steering wheel has been installed with EAS carbon fiber trim that extends to the dashboard, doors, center console, and instrument panel. Other modifications include an EAS custom V1 radar mount, an Ultimate pedal and dead pedal set, a Rogue Engineering parking brake handle, a grey Alcantara parking brake boot with M tri-color stitching, M3-emboidered carpet mats, a LeatherZ gauge pod, AutoMeter auxiliary gauges, a Nexus sensor module and remote control, Boston Acoustics speakers, and a Pioneer AVIC N3 head unit with navigation. The driver is also provided with power windows and mirrors, a remote central locking system, automatic climate control, cruise control, rear parking assist, and an onboard trip computer. Some chips and scratches are noted on the back of the center console.
The 3.2-liter S54 inline-six engine has been rebuilt and blueprinted by VAC Motorsports, including Carillo rods, JE pistons, ARP head studs, knife-edged heads, VAC springs, and a VAC head gasket. Under previous ownership, it was fitted with an Active Autowerks Stage 2 Gen VI supercharger kit with methanol and fuel systems, Active Autowerks headers, and an Active Autowerks Gen6 exhaust system. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 6-speed SMG transmission that has been converted to manual operation. Stopping power has been upgraded with a PFC big brake kit, and the suspension features Bilstein PSS10 coilovers, PowerFlex rear trailing arm bushings, and Ground Control rear shock mounts. The seller notes the clutch was recently replaced along with the belts, fluids, and filters.
This sale will include owner’s manuals, a toolkit, and a clean title.

@captjoeb pictures don’t show but tires are brand new MPS4. Will update pics this weekend.
Hi, It looks like all the tires are at least 10 years old. Can you tell me the correct sizes. Thanks
