*MY* new M (better then rom3ns 0-0)




I have this thing for blues, I'm going to eventually end up owning 1 of every BMW blue.

Anyways here she is, an Estoril blue e46 M3, Couldn't go from the rare M coupe to owning a regular old silver e46 M3.





This car is going to be completely torn down and rebuilt at my shop. All bushings and mounts are going to be replaced and all door seals and cracked plastics. Everything under the car is going to be removed and cleaned including the engine. New Stoptech brakes will be going on as well as TCkline DA suspension. Mechanically besides the transmission itself (new clutch and flywheel) the car will be new or rebuilt. That includes the engine as it's a requirement for HPF stage 3 . The interior is also going to get a very thorough overhaul between CF trimmings, Alcantara coverings and new leather.

A blog is going to be created so keep an eye out for updates, this will be a pretty big project and a fairly epic car when finished.


Once finished this car will be in the 900hp range with plenty of room for upgrading when/if I decide to as well (it already wont have any traction past 100mph)

awesome car. I was looking at an estoril E46 when I was car shopping a few months car, but the car had SMG and I didn't want that.

Estoril is amazing color. My old E36 M was estoril and I use to drool over it.

Congrats.

I have so many responses to the cry baby relating to his mother but I don't feel the need to be banned for such an insignificant person.

Not taking it to the track, but it's not a drag car either. Pretty easy to go through corners, just not at full throttle... It will also have a really trick traction control system though.
