55k-Mile 2003 BMW M3 Convertible

Description

BMW unveiled the E46 M3 for 2001, and at its heart was the S54, a 3.2-liter inline-six that breathed through six individual throttle bodies, used Double-VANOS variable valve timing, and revved to 8,000 rpm. In U.S. trim, it made 333 horsepower and 262 lb-ft. of torque, more than 100 horsepower per liter without forced induction. Wider fenders, a power-dome hood, quad exhaust outlets, M-specific suspension and brakes, and an M Variable Differential Lock completed the package, which was offered as a coupe or a convertible. New for the U.S.-market E46 M3, buyers could select the SMG II Sequential Manual Gearbox, an automated six-speed with paddle or lever shifts.

This 2003 M3 convertible was delivered new to Jackie Cooper Imports in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and is finished in Oxford Green Metallic over Cinnamon leather with a black soft top. It is equipped with the SMG II gearbox, 19" alloy wheels, xenon headlights, the Cold Weather Package, Harman Kardon audio, Park Distance Control, and aluminum interior trim, for a total MSRP of $63,895 when new.

In May 2026, four Kumho Ecsta Sport A/S were mounted, while a December 2022 service included a water pump replacement, valve cover gasket replacement, and coolant flush. The odometer now shows approximately 55,100 miles.

This 2003 BMW M3 Convertible is now offered by the selling dealer with its original window sticker, service receipts from 2022 and 2026, a CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean New Jersey title.
