Yeah you heard me, I've been sniffing around a little.. I miss having an E46 (hasn't even been a month yet).

Anyone keen on anything good out there?

Updated preferences.

Sedans only
2005 (04 considered if under $10k)
Under $12k and under 120k if possible
6MT!!!
Mystic or Orient Blue first choice, Imola and TiAg preferred, SGM and AW acceptable also. Black... well ok I guess just this once if it's clean.
Alcantara interior ONLY
Cold weather pkg A MUST

Tastefully modded always appreciated but good maintenance/condition is first priority.


I've been combing through the listings here and on C-List but haven't seen too much - lots of AT out there.

I like that one, checks most of my boxes: MT, Mystic Blue, ZCW, leather, nav, good price for the miles

If you can live with black leather interior, it looks like a good option, Seth.

Regardless this will be a purchase I am making for a long term ownership. I've had my fun being stupid with high powered cars and big gas tank fill ups and all of that. Time to settle down and just drive it for purpose.

I'd get myself a civic but I don't think that will be enjoyable enough to keep me some what interested for 90 min a day so this is the right move.

E90 M3 will be up for sale soon. Gotta move that wagon too.

very respectable move, seth - i think with age, and experience, comes clarity. :) i'm there now as well. and loving it! my ZHP - especially now - offers me all of the spice i need in a car, with all of the practicality. i don't need 333hp, or 414hp (i may want it, though - it's important to control that ;) ).

hope you find the right one! don't settle.

I'm at 16 cars and been driving for 18 years so yeah pretty close man lol.

Both Ms I've owned I've enjoyed the power but man I'm finding commuting sucks and I don't get to play with it enough to justify right now. A Zhp is plenty fun. Maybe a few goodies to make it look and sound nice but that's it.

Stick to 6MT. The step was a fun car but I would have kept the ZHP long term had it been 6MT. Sadly I'm looking at ZHPs but I think I'm priced out of the market right now. I have a great M but selling and buying a decent ZHP would almost put me in the same position money wise. Really just thinking of the usability factor with ease of driving the non-M engine/transmission.
