There is a young guy near me who drives one of these, possibly his first car, with the roof down and his lady friends in the passenger seats. Living the life.

Big props to the owner for keeping it for 15 years and keeping it stock and not all chaved up.

Just like to say a big thanks to you James for reviewing my car. As ever, a thoughtful and accurate assessment of the subject. Pleased to see the non-M e46 getting recognition , among the last of the classic BMW style.

Being part of the BMW design team back then,very glad you appreciated the design quality on the e46 exterior.This is due to the great work done by the recently so tragically missed Ian Cameron.Together with Eric Goplen,the principal exterior designer of the e46 and under the direction of Chris Bangle a great car was created.Credits to Wolfgang Reitzle who was instrumental in putting a great team together.

M3 used to be my dream car, but then I grew up. 330 Ci is such an elegant and carefree car.

I have an 06 M3 that doesn't live up to the hype either. It exceeds the hype

I owned a brand new 2004 325ci manual coupe and I loved it! I couldn’t afford the 330ci. Unfortunately, I sold it a few years later after 23,000 miles when I moved into Manhattan. This really was BMW’s golden era before the turbos, the massive weight gain, and the all wheel drive!

As fellow E46 coupe owner, I’m 100% sure that an unmodified 6 cylinder manual will be a future classic

Yes, I've had my '06 330ci Coupe for over 5 years and I absolutely love it. In over 50 years driving I've had around 50 cars, and this one is my all-time favourite. Can't imagine ever selling it.
