WTB Black Manual Z4M Seats
Looking for a pair of black manual z4m seats to buy for my e46 m3. I made an account over here to aid in my search but I am an active member on m3forum.net if you want to check my feedback.

Manual Z4M seats are uncommon. I would guess about 90% of all MZ4 (coupe and roadster) comes with premium package, which has the powered seats.
You're looking for a needle in the haystack. Any specific reason why you're looking for MZ4 seats instead of any of the BETTER manual aftermarket offerings, like Recaro Sportsters CS?

I'd like to retain a somewhat factory look. I'd be fine with powered z4m seats if they had a quick forward folding feature so that access to the back seats was quicker. With the manual seats I can move them forward much quicker.

Neither the powered and the manual Z4M seats have that lever that allows the seatback to bend forward and the seat base to move up IMO. You would have better luck with 2 series coupe owners who have swapped out their seats. The M2 seats are nice in that regard, you will retain the flip up seats.
Also the E92 M3 BMW Performance seats would be much better suited for your needs, IMO. Someone on eBay is selling a set of red power seats and as you can see from the comments, they're far and few in between and most seller will DEMAND an exorbitant price.

It won't allow simultaneous lean + slide forward but it's still much faster than waiting for a power seat. Either way I can get access to the rear. One way is just a lot faster. As far as I know, the only factory BMW seats that are a direct swap into the e46 are from z4s and e63s. I may consider going for a set of power seats eventually but I wanted to throw this out there to see if I could find what I really want.
