jjs 64 Report post Posted November 23, 2008 Cheap NZ black 1999 328ci manual The right colour and gearbox - also a big bonus being NZ new too. I think it is pretty good buying at $18k with 100km on it. These cars seemed to have dropped in value a lot lately! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted November 23, 2008 (edited) That's mint! Nice find. There are two other e46 328i manuals with higher kms for about $3k less on TM. Now if only we could get the 330i's with the 6 speed SMG down to that price... Edited November 23, 2008 by bravo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think due to the cost of maintenance, they are less desirable (price wise) than a manual. Driving an E36 SMG M3 was one of the worst drives of my life!

Also right colour leather BMW built Recaro's, plus the front end is pre facelift so doesn't have squinted stretched headlights/indicators etc. Nice car for that money.

Driving an E36 SMG M3 was one of the worst drives of my life! I think the SMG in the e46 is a shitload better than the e36 one, but not having driven one I can't fully comment. I do know I've only seen a couple of cars with them, and one owner I talked to likes it and has agreed to give me a drive sometime. Will report back when I get around to it.
