1999 - 2005 (E46) (1999 - 2005) Starting in 1999 the E46 3 Series picked up where the E36 left off. Larger, with smoother lines, and with more advanced engines than its predecessor, the E46 easily held the title of "Best Car of the Year" throughout its life.

Wink '00 bmw e46 323i 5spd blck 4 dr 70k mi - cheap !!

Ok about this 2000 323i, pls read the whole thing completely...

Yes folks this car has a salvaged title non op due to a blown gasket. Most of u probable stop reading after u hear these things, right ? Salvaged title, non op, head gasket. But pls stay w me...
I love this car and if u would see pics (very soon) and you will too ! This is my toy car that i drive on weekends...

I work 4 paramount pictures in hollywood,ca as a studio equipment supervisor. Very cool job. But im always constantly working and traveling. A friend of mine sold this car to me due financial problem and i assure him i will take care of it. I only drive this car on the weekends if that, thats why it only got 70k mi on it. The car sits on 18' chrome rims, new tires, the car is lowered w eibach springs and belstein shocks. I got a camber modified kit on it. The stands looks scary ! All the engine are stock due to that im nvr into racing but comfort and styles. Make long story short i hit a dip on fwy and since its very low the upper radiator hose popped out and car overheat then i pulled over right away n got it towed to bmw tech in pasadena. He says the job gonna cost me $1300 due to i have a blown head gasket. I just nvr had the time to fix this due to my work and i hate 2 get dirty plus me and my gf own 3 cars (lexus,infinity) inluding my toy the bmw.

Look guys,
this is an excellent deal for the price im asking. This car will be a great it only has 70 k mi on it and just needs a head gasket job.
Im selling the car for $3000 i think kbb about $9-9500 and regards to the salvaged title, no frame damage anywhere and was not stolen. There was a fender bender on fr fender but ins claim salvage which was stupid. Anyways if u have q's let me know. I stay in orange county,ca and wants this car gone asap. Im searching for a new toy maybe an m3 - who knows....maybe if i have the time to fix the head gasket ill just stick w my toy.


I will email pics if u want 2 see the car. I HAVE ABOUT 30 PAGES ON SERVICE MAINTANENCE AND UPGRADES.

Blown head gasket and it's salvage titled? And then ins claim salvage again on fr fender? Do they salvage title a car for a blown head gasket? I guess I'll have to reread all that in the morning.

Im always suspect when there is a salvage title.

Reason? My boss bought a Magnum SRT8 that wasn't even a salvaged title but was in a front end collision. They said it needed a new hood and bumper.

Come time to fix it, after it was pre-inspected prior to purchase..it needed new radiator, airbag sensor, hood, both fenders, bumper, frame pulled, wrong intercooler (needed to be replaced), broken airbox....etc.

After carefully pulling up records, the car was claimed salvage but never put it like that on the title. The car had been crashed into a semi and the whole front end collapsed into the rear of the semi

So, just be careful....people try to tell you stuff that isn't necessarily true.....

Not bashing on the OP, but just a warning to all

sometimes its more expensive to fix a salvage title than it is to buy a clean title, I learned this the hard way...
