"E46 is a stunner - it’ll steal all of your money, but you won’t mind because it’ll already have stolen your heart."
+Radu Misca why is that? is it a problematic car in terms of durability?
+Sergio Domingues Relatively expensive to maintain high performance cars. Also, uses a lot of gasoline. Awesome driving machine, though
not rly. just gotta do some preventive stuff before it catches up to you. it's honestly an affordable car to drive
Beautiful car and great video , I’m thinking about getting one
Watched this video back in 2013 and still playing this in 2022 ❤️ reminds me my days with E46 M3 ❤️
I know others have mentioned it already but this is one of the best videos of an e46 M3 I've been able to find. Thanks for posting!
This is so much beter than any stanced out piece of garbage.
Thank you for keeping it the way it should be. love your m3 mate.
One of the best cars in the world.
Beautiful video.
this car deserves very long long film..thumbs up if agreed..
Would love too!
best m3 video ever !
If I could like this video 100 times I would of done so by now. Still the best M3 clip on the internet. Well done.
i appreciate that, thanks :)
the weekend is pure magic.
Wow im in love with the camera angles and the style it was recorded! The music over play was loud but i can still hear pretty much all the raw noises. Perfect balance of everything imo.
Dude, this is one of best videos I've ever seen and I watch a LOT of UA-cam. Now I really miss my 2004...
beautiful car , I love BMW
Even 6 years later, this video is wonderful.
5 years later and I'm back to watch one of my favourite videos, so epic and such an inspiration! Might do something similar with my M2 :-)
wasn't expecting that choice of music, you have just mixed my two favourite things in life the weeknd and e46 m3's and for that I thank you
Beautiful M3, and beautiful video!
This has got to be in the top 3 of best M3 videos, if not the best. Loved every second of it!
As a bmw fanatic , i say this is the best car ever!
The music and car tho 👌👌
Very nice mate. Very nice. It's obvious your in love too.
Brilliant, collect my e46 m3 tomorrow never been so excited!
+Chris Jesson hows maintenance so far
the stop motion of the seat was nice!
Possibly the best e46 video ever. .... Its unfortunate that all e46 models are doomed with that sub frame problem. May have ended up in the history books for one of all times greatest.
Doomed? it's an easy fix.
At first that's what I thought too until I saw this video where they reinforced the mounts only to find the problem propogate elsewhere.
Not all have it later years were fixed off the assembly line or have a very low rate versus first few years. Like rod bearings.
this deserves more views. awesome video, awesome car. great job dude
Sorry the audio is copyrighted and UA-cam prevents use on smart devices unfortunately. It's much better on a bigger screen anyway ;)
4 days into my ownership of a e46 m3 and I feel like making my own video. Incredible car. Nice vid. In love with my m3
+see jay hows maintenance so far
most probably best video i've see of a M3
What an awesome video including beautiful soundtrack...
It's the lad who bought it from you in Ireland here 🙋🏼♂️ today is a mad day, I sold it to one of my best mates (2016) after about a year who then garaged it until today, did around 1000miles in total in his ownership.
Collecting it tonight it's now back with us!
PS it's still ultra-mint
Wow. Great to hear from you Matty and that the M3 is still been looked after all these years. I still yearn after it/ another one. Take care of it and give me a bell if you decide to part ways.
Current owner here Matty, hope you're well and say hi to Craig for me!
Amazing video Mel👍
I'm in love with my e46 M3.It has a Billy Boat exhaust, ESS tune, K&N intake, Rogue Engineering short shifter, Stormwerks shift knob, and 19" VMR VB3 CSL replicas. I drove an e92 M3 and just didn't love it as much, but it may have just needed maintenance done on it. Anyways, I love your car. Looks beautiful.
the car is beautiful and a legend.
your video production is absolutely excellent.
That was fucking awesome!! I have and 04. Totally in love.
Absolutely well done video I admire this film applause given. 👏
Pefect ! I miss my BMW so much.
I like to see people show love to thear BMW E30-E36-E46. Those 3 cars are really the best cars in the world in my optinion. Dont have a car yet but E30-E36 or E46 is going to be my first one for sure.
.. exceptional video ... perfect soundtrack,,, good Northern Ireland locations...
I used to have a e46 M3 CS loved it, changed for a 5.0 TVR tho which is immense
the red interiors bmw make are just bless
Theres nothinh better than bmw and the weeknd
Best e46 video out there!!!!
Awesome footage and editing! Nice Job.
Great work mate. Love it!
Brillantly filmed ! Nice work, thumbs up to that M3 and its Supersprint exhaust note 👍🏽
awesome, mate, thanks for sharing...
Great job Melvyn. Good cinematography and editing....I had an E46 M3, I now have an E60 M5.
mattnycm3 thanks! How are you finding the e60?
The car is fast!!!! Especially in the P500S mode. It is a little expensive when it comes to repairs. I have a third party warranty that covers some parts and labor.
Mate you must really love this car lol
What a great video, I have listed after an M3 since the E36 and then the E46 came along! Still a box that needs ticking and was on the back burner for me but your video has brought it very much to the front!!!!!
Probably one of the most stunning E46 M3's I've ever seen. Do you still have it?
2020 still watchin.still lovin. What u drive these days Melvyn?
Well done mate...I really liked your M Three and your video clip and thank you very much for that...This video shows how you love M3...Cheers ///M
What happened to this video?
Says not available.
Shame as I loved it, one of the best m3 videos. : (
This car looks amazing for its age
Car is legendary, looks incredible...but if anyone honestly thinks that this car sounds good, they need their ears tested and I own one. Inside sounds great, love the timeless look and overall an amazing car but I HATE the sound they make, especially stock, sounds like blowing into a can/Honda.
Very true, which is why i changed it for the v8 e92 dct :)
Melvyn Nicholls lol good man, that V8 never gets old. Shame what the industry is becoming with smaller engines and turbos :(
Think the e46 and M4 look better than the e92 from a lot of angles though especially the rear, just wish you could get a V8 in the M4. I'll be purchasing an M4 within 6 months as my M3 was my first car that I've had for 6 years now but as amazing as that car (M4) looks, sounds and performs, in the back of my head I just wish it had that V8.
Bet someone will put that V8 in an M4 with some other performance mods soon and it'll be absolutely perfect.
Either way, BMW is the best.
Melvyn Nicholls Congrats man. What year is it? How do you like the the DCT?
No honda sounds that aggressive:)
IMO, I like that raspy exhaust that e46 m3 makes. It's distinctive.
That is just Epic! Loved that Mel. Well done mate!
my 05 BMW 325i m 3 owned me automatic 2.5 inline 6 it has a steptronic 5 speed with a sports shift
very nice car man, I own an e46 coupe but this m3 is stunnig
Excellent work. Congz man. I enjoyed it a lot!
You had me until the SMG...
CSB 👍🏻
lol me 2 hahaha
Sorry, what is ''SMG''?
I do wonder if the SMG haters on the internet have ever driven an M3 with an SMG or an M3 at all for that matter...
why people obsess over a notchy manual stick if that's all that matters is beyond me.
Really awesome video!!
very well done. amazing car
Very beautiful and well made movie! :D
converted my smg to manual after i saw the repair cost for the smg pump when mine went out
How did it all go? do you like it more than the smg?
it was fairly easy of a project just took a while to get all the parts needed. there are a few forums that have everything you need to know to do the conversion. and i love it now but its great either way. more reliable with a standard i guess
My favorite car.
Nice car man! Respect for you!
Epic.....Simply put.....Epic
Lovely video lovely car and smg is lovely its not slow alot faster then anyone can change manually and if your worried about smg pump going wrong dont own a bmw esp not an m3
Agree. So much quicker
beautiful film well done sir
gorgeous car and well nice vid Melvyn Nicholls
well done. did you have the song in mind when shooting? car films are rarely evocative pieces, but this one really stirs emotions. well, well done.
Awesome Video Melvyn, Awesome Car, Love your M3 mate.
N
Beautiful video man!
I just came... Then i looked out to my driveway and i came again..
Very nice...
Damn, nice editing!
Ugh I wish I had a .. oh wait.
Love the video, awesome editing.
its misses a manual...
It misses nothing!
Melvyn Nicholls you must live in usa
Dario kruzk Yeah, because in the U.S. they use Celsius for temp gauge, right hand drive, and GB license plates. You must live in Germany...
Agreed
HipsterPolice i was replying to Melvyn not to the owner of the car in the video.
but what can you expect from the hipster police? XD
amazing car and the film
Awesome car, absolutely fantastic editing! Best car short film i've seen by a mile! What software and cameras were used?
Makes me wanna drive mine now
1:25 Why does it sound like it's sucking air back in when the throttle is released? :S
Good work my man! that's seals the deal I'm getting 1 in black 👌
I'm planning on getting one for my first car but how's the maintenance expense is it like the M5 from from this time
bella come sempre. un giorno conquisto anche questa.
Been almost 5 years. What happens to this car now?
Super Video :-)
did you use any sliders for moving the camera ? Dope video by the way man !!
awesome video! love it
want this car so bad
You won't want the running costs though. I have had one for 6 years. It's not just owning a car it's more like having a relationship with a Women. There are going to be some big big highs & some even bigger Lows! But because you love them you can't let go. :-)

John Chisholm I've also owned one for almost 5 years, and have put a lot of money into it, but to be honest, there have been a lot of unneeded things that I've replaced on it, mechanically, just for peace of mind. Then things, like some that you've listed, such as clutch, wheel, brake, and accelerator sensors, ignition coils, tyres, and front and rear brakes and rotors, are basically regular maintenance type of things, that you would need to get with any car. So, almost half of the things you've replaced on your car are expected, and a little more than half were unexpected, or just replaced for your peace of mind.
Though it seems as though you've spent/invested a lot of money into your E46 M3, this car is, IMO, the best car for the price today. Nothing can give you more of a thrill, be as classy, and as reliable, for today's money. So in the long run, every penny you've spent has definitely been worth it.
John Chisholm how many km? you probably wouldnt have to change the head gasket if you changed the radiator
I'm having a really hard time choosing between E46 M3 and E92 330i , and before you scoff at 330i :) both have their respective qualities , plus is kinda hard to find a good not run down E46 M3
M3
If you go E92 330i, get a manual; that gear box suits a N/A engine.
TheNuisance9 nah manual is out of a question , had enough of driving stick need some comfort now , and anyway both E46 M3 and E92 330i have paddles so it's pointless
RobotDevil666xx Why not consider 335i?
TheNuisance9 I test drove 330i and 335 i and while handling seems pretty much the same there's quite a difference in acceleration plus 335i sounds amazing much better than 330i
Good work m8! Awesome!
Would you mind if i used these clips to make a video? I would credit you of course.
Not at all, work away.
