2004 | BMW M3 Convertible
Overview
This 2004 BMW M3 Convertible is open-top, E46-generation thrills from the brand’s most famous performance model. The unique Carbon Black Metallic exterior gives off a slight blue hue when in direct sunlight and adds a level of depth and detail that’s hard to replicate with modern paint choices. A sequential manual gearbox ($2,400) combines high-end performance with the optional convenience of an automatic, while xenon headlights and a premium Harman/Kardon sound system add distinctive luxury touches. With less than 23k miles on the odometer and a clean Carfax history, there are plenty more opportunities to get to know why the M3 continues to be an iconic sports car.
The 3.2-liter inline-six engine was the last naturally aspirated example with six cylinders fitted to the M3 and produced 333 horsepower when new. It was a significant step up from the previous generation and came with an upgraded limited-slip differential, electronic throttle control with M Dynamic Driving Control, and M-calibration suspension. The 19” M double-spoke Style 67 wheels were a must-have for the original buyers of this M3, as was the distinctive aluminum hood that helped get closer to an ideal 50-50 weight distribution.
Every generation of M3 possesses a unique draw. This 2004 BMW M3 Convertible brings a potent inline-six engine, pairs it with a proven handling platform, and drops the top for extra enjoyment with any drive or occasion.
