2001 86k mile BMW E46 S54 6-speed Touring Slicktop M Tech II walk around and features video

This 86k mile, extremely clean slicktop BMW E46 touring (wagon) in Orient Blue and Mosaico (the only one in this model year that has this interior) has just been finished being built including a low mileage, fully refreshed E46 M3 engine (S54) and 6-speee Getrag 420G manual transmission. The entire powertrain including subframes, suspension, brakes, etc are all from the M3 donor.
The car contains several really special bits from BMW including the full M Tech II package, front and rear clear lighting, ///M sills on all four doors, anthracite headliner, slicktop (no sunroof), factory navigation, and much more. Beyond that, we swapped in a black carpet and dash and lower sill plastics, and cargo area carpeting and plastics for a more sporty look, fully refreshed every inch of the car including the engine (see cold start video for details), brand new shocks and springs, camber plates, brand new Apex EC-7 wheels and tires, brand new Hotchkis swaybars, subframe reinforcement, rod bearings, valve shims, a deep cleaning on the interior, factory M3 gauge cluster wired and fully functional including warm up lights and rear door indicators, etc.
The competition ZCP donor car also donated its steering rack and brakes which are also on the vehicle. All bushings and bearings in subframes and suspension arms are new and everything has been gone over and tested for durability.
Small areas of rust from prior owners have been properly fixed by a high end BMW paint shop in town that has done my previous tourings and we installed a new BMW windshield and many other parts at the same time.
Watch BringaTrailer soon for this car's auction!
