Finding the right used E46 BMW M3 for sale in good condition is not easy.
Here are a few sources you can use to start your search.
Bring A Trailer (BaT)
Bring a Trailer is a digital auction platform and enthusiast community.

Hemmings
Hemmings is known mostly for its’ classic car auctions, but now it’s also an online auctions platform. I wouldn’t say the classifieds are to be 100% great quality, but there are times when you find an M3 in good condition.
eBay
Finally, there’s always eBay. Again, if you do your due diligence you might find a needle in a haystack. Just make sure the seller has good feedback, the posting has many great images, low mileage, and the it’s near you. You definitely want to make sure you can drive to see what you’re buying before you make the commitment.
