This BMW E46 M3 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 2002 BMW M3 coupe has remained registered in Virginia after being purchased new by the seller in 2002 and now has 15k miles. It is powered by a 3.2-liter inline-six linked with a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential and is finished in Imola Red II over black Nappa leather upholstery. Equipment includes the Premium and Cold Weather packages as well as 18″ M double-spoke wheels, a power sunroof, xenon headlights, rear Park Distance Control, heated power-adjustable front sport seats, navigation, a Harman Kardon sound system, driver-seat position memory settings, and automatic climate control. This E46 M3 is now offered by the sole owner with the owner’s manual, a tool kit, two keys, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Virginia title in the seller’s name.
