I am going to attempt to film every generation M3 in my quest to find the "best M3". It only made sense to start with this E46 M3 as it has been very long overdue build update on Andy's M3! Comment down below which M3 you would rather have between these 2 :)

    I have always been an avid enthusiast for M3’s and now that I have an E90 M3 I want to see which generation is the best M3! We start off with a familiar build to the channel, Andy’s E46 M3. This car has gone through a full transformation since the last time and I can’t wait to see what he does next! Check out the video description for links to products, modifications and other channel resources! Purchasing from these links helps out the channel greatly because it gives a small commission which we use for more content.

  • I just want to give props to the E46 owner, for not swapping out the kidney grille surrounds. Nine out of ten E46's you see all have either piano black or CF surrounds, but I actually prefer them OEM. I'm not digging the peanut butter coloured seats though.
  • @d0mochi
    Spoiler: the M3 won the race.
  • @BaldwinNguyen
    Andy is always a chill guy to talk to about cars. Seems down to earth.
  • @lllMPower
    Great job with the video. Always nice to hear people's passion and the stories of how the car came to be. The pulls at the end were a nice treat.
  • @Loopyspec
    Happy to the E46 back on the channel!
  • Great video. The E46 is on point. Sounds amazing. I can tell the 4.10s really woke it up. I need them for my car. I wonder how much it cost him.
  • That is quite a well built e46. I wouldn’t second guess your e90 purchase. You throw that e46 mod money into your e90 and the result will be different. Hell you don’t even have to put that much money into the e90. Some exhaust work and coilovers will change the experience all together.
  • @friguy4444
    Honestly BOTH are incredible. I have lust after the E9X M3 now that I have an E46 M3 lol. That E46 M3 is SWEET! I LOVE all of his mods! One thing I was surprised to hear him say is that he has a little nit of steering play in his connection to the steering rack. I have the 330CI early (2001) Steering rack on my E46 M3 and I haven't really had the chance to compare it with a standard E46 M3. My car was made out of two cars. The 2002 (made in 2001) 330CI the rack is from and the body of that car as well and all the other parts are from a 2006 Competition M3. I also have catless headers and a short shift for that "Rifle action" he was talking about. Plus the tune I did myself from the E46 M3 S54 Build Journal series. So I believe I actually have the best of the OEM type stuff. But I'm so jealous of this mans mods! That Eventuri Intake is KILLER! And the rest of his CF I love as well! Oh I just heard he has 4.10 diff gearing. Now I hate him LOL. Just kidding!
  • @murk1352
    E46 M3 is cool but the steering wheel is absolutely horrible! I’d get a mint E46 M3 competition wheel & that’d look killer, and you’d have a lot better control, those small steering wheels are horrible! I love both cars but there’s no doubt I’d take the E92! You do a full exhaust, intake & tune on that bad boy & it’ll annihilate the E46. That S65 is a killah…..✌🏻💯🏁
  • @z-dub8577
    I have an e46 m3 I’ve heard the e90-92 feels heavy in the front even though the v-8 is lighter than the I-6
  • @legit4083
    Does this dude have a Chanel for this m3 love the car wanna see more of it
  • Very nicely done. Can you tell us what exhaust and rear diffuser and side skirts you’re running. Really like the look of your rearend. I’ll assume based on your mods, you’ve done rod bearing and vanos. Thanks again!

    Bro is in Love with Honda he on the wrong channel 😅
