Soo...

My love affair for the S54 has not grown any weaker however I had the opportunity to land this beautiful beast and simply could not resist. It wasnt far more than clean E46M3 money so I figured its good value.

Given the rarity of low mileage 4 door M3's I think the money is safe with this one.

Previously owned by Dealer principle from BMW Leo Haese he is as meticulous as they come. Had some minor spray work done on the front bumper to get it back to new and it is simply impressive.

Mechanically the car is sound with 62xxx kms on the clock FSH and I'm busy doing some odds and ends and hence the thread.

I'll post pics shortly from my phone as thats waaay easier.

So far I've owned the car for 24 hours and I've changed the CHF 11-s fluid purely because I had spare and it was easy.

He was also kind enough to order new angel eyes so will see what they look like compared to the oem ones.

Car serviced literally like 1 fuel tank ago so engine oil is fresh. Going to go through all the filters and change as necessary.

The S65 isn't so intimidating now since owning S85's hasnt scared me away yet.

Onto the pics...

Some pics

Just unedited ones with my phone. Will take more in due course of ownership.

Initial impressions so far are good. Really good.

The S65 has a lovely sound and the cold start is quite vulgar. However the chassis and overall handling is what impresses me most. I would go as far as to say it drives and handles better than any e46m3 ive owned or driven.

And thats a lot coming from a biased S54 owner.

The DCT is very well suited to the character of the car. The manual feels a bit too tall as it does in the S85 M5 i have. In fact I would prefer a DCT in the E60M5 as well.

The E46M3 however has a perfectly suited manual box to it and I wouldnt change that for anything.

It powerslides like a champ as well. I am extremely impressed by the controlability and precision of the Car.

Driver satisfaction rating on this car is simply next level.

If an E46M3 is hypothetically an 8/10 I would give the E90M3 a 9/10.
