2001 BMW M3 Preview summaryImage

BMW built a new generation of its popular, M3 sports coupe in 2001. The new, E46 engine replaced the E36 platform of prior models and delivered 333 horsepower from a 3.2 liter inline six cylinder engine. The new engine shared just five percent of its parts component with the old engine.

Some buyers, however, chose to wait for the 2002 M3 when BMW added the clutchless, sequential manual gearbox. But added features made the 2001 model one worth owning. Another notable addition was the new Dynamic Stability Control which, when combined the new variable M differential lock, made for superior handling on slick surfaces.

Decent for the year it is. Hopes for more because it’s a bmw but overall what was expected. Noticed some oil leaks. Needs rear brake job.could use some body work, chips in number found as if they maybe previous owner hit a bump a bit to fast because suspension felt a bit harsh as well. Needs work but with patience and work could be a good car.May 05, 2021

Coolest car i've ever had. So desirable to many. Very powerful, great brakes and handling capability and fuel efficient. This car brought racing and luxury and style into one. Very fun to own, and great for picking up girls. Must have.Nov 04, 2011
