The problem with getting a $16K E46 M3 is your talking 100k plus miles. I've searched a lot of used E46 M3's on line and most have had 5-8 owners so you could be getting a piece of crap. If you could find one that's 1-2 owners that had good service records I'd buy that. It would take a lot of searching but occasionally strange things pop up at dealers. Summer of 2011 my local dealer got a 2000 528 with 24,000 miles on it on a trade. I bought it the day it was posted on line for $11K drove it 3 years and just sold it for $6,500. Never had a single problem with it but I sold it with 65K on it. BMW dealers don't like to keep the old ones so they wholesale them or move them quick, they offered me $2,000 to trade it for my M235 and I sold it in two weeks for the $6,500.
