loki,

Great review and excellent car!!

I love the M3s, and the E46 is no exception.

If I had the money to throw around at the moment, it would be pretty high up on my list of desirable cars. Hopefully they will release the M3 convertible in Australia again soon.

Nice M3! Great choice of colors but I promised myself I would avoid red to keep the tickets to a minimum. Can you confirm that the us spec. SMGII does indeed have the launch control (S6) mode? I read on a BMW website that Launch control was featured only on the EURO M3's.

"S6" is not "Launch Control", you merely engage LC when in S6... the US has both and they make me do this:

Loki

Have you driven the M5? If you have, a comparison would be nice.

No I haven't but I'd be willing to take up any generous offers to.

Nice car Loki. I just saw the M3 SMG on Motorweek this week. It looks to be another collector's car. My ex girlfriend's brother in law has the E46 convertible in black. I didn't get to see it since I didn't go to Seattle with her but she says its a beauty.
