Other small things I am forgetting
Pros: Engine is strong and pulls hard. Don't let the mileage scare you, I have sunk thousands of dollars into this car mechanically to address all the E46 weaknesses, such as the VANOS and cooling system. The 3.46 diff was just recently installed and refreshed with new seals, fluid, etc. and really makes the car feel a couple hundred pounds lighter in regards to the stock diff. The exhaust sounds amazing without being overly loud and all the alcantara bits really make the interior that much nicer.
Cons: The body isn't in the greatest of shape, the paint still cleans up nice but there are lots of dings, dents and scratches. Most notably, there is some hail damage on the roof and hood. The car was previously from New Jersey so there is rust starting to form in a few places, the worst is the passenger side rear quarter panel where the rear bumper meets and above the driver side skirt (common E46 rust points). The front bumper will need replaced as the paint is faded and it is sagging, the rear bumper will also need resprayed as it has some flaking and scratches. Apart from the body, mechanically the car is sound minus what appears to be either a small oil pan gasket or oil filter housing gasket leak. I never got around to replacing it as it wasn't that bad, usually just topped the car off with a couple quarts inbetween changes (oil changes done every 5 - 7500 miles). Passenger headlight is out because somehow one of the xenon ignitor wires got cut, can be crimped together no problem.
Note: The Auto Check report here on eBay is saying the vehicle has frame damage, however, that is not true. I had the vehicle inspected before I purchased it 2 years ago and there is NO frame damage. The vehicle was involved in an accident in 2007 but EVERYTHING was repaired under warranty at Flemington BMW in New Jersey of whom I spoke to before purchasing the vehicle. CLEAN title in hand. CarFax also reports NO frame damage. *Vehicle is listed locally and I have the right to end this auction at anytime*.
