In today's VLOG, I share the exhilarating and unexpected journey of winning the world's most expensive E46 M3 on Bring a Trailer. This isn't just any M3-it's the only Laguna Seca Blue, slick top, cinnamon interior, manual E46 M3 in existence. From the moment I saw it listed, I knew I had to have it, but little did I know the rollercoaster that awaited me.
As the most desired E46 M3 in history, the auction was fierce, with bids flying in from all over. One competitor, known as Gear22, kept outbidding me by thousands, pushing the price to astronomical heights. When the auction ended, Gear22 emerged victorious, and I thought my dream of owning this iconic car was over.
But fate had other plans. A few days later, the sellers reached out with unexpected news-Gear22 couldn't come up with the funds to complete the purchase. This twist of events opened the door for me to step in. With Gear22 covering the auction fees, I seized the opportunity and secured the car.
In this video, I recount the thrilling story of how this legendary E46 M3 became mine, from the intense bidding war to the unexpected second chance. Join me as I collect the car, take it for its first drive, and explore why this Laguna Seca Blue beauty is the most special E46 M3 in history.
Don't miss this epic tale of determination, passion, and the joy of finally owning a dream car. Hit LIKE if you love a good comeback story, COMMENT your thoughts on the E46 M3, and SUBSCRIBE for more automotive adventures. Let's take this incredible ride together!

This is madness! Many years ago I bought a 2006 M3 Interlagos Blue Competition w 90k miles. While not as special as this one, I only paid $18k. Car drives amazingly well and has been ultra fun and reliable. It’s a never sell.
Never sell my friend. Amazing car and I’m happy you love it
Honestly a classic. My late Dad actually had this car with a black interior, and this video brought back a lot of memories. We got snowed in at the Grand Canyon and had an awesome time. Hope you get to enjoy this and create as memories with family and friends.
Thank you my friend for sharing. Can’t wait for my son to have these same memories. God bless
3 miles from the office? Short trips will not be good for that car or the engine.
Don’t worry I also take it to lunch, gym and dinner 😂
@@MiamiMilesit will be fine 🤦🏻♂️
Should title the video “I spent 6 figures on an e46 m3” would def be more attention grabbing! Absolutely love the channel and the car collection, will def be looking forward to all the videos on this tging
Thank you for the suggestion. Will try it
Damn, this E46 is so precious. Lost for words. It’s scary how we have such similar tastes. Brother from another mother. Enjoy it!
Thank you my bro. Can’t wait to see you one day in person and have you drive it 😎 love that we share such similar tastes in cars
Cograts buddy! I just bought my own E46 M3 Comp in Interlagos Blue! Cannot wait for it to arrive. The best M car ever made!
Enjoy it my friend. Interlagos is peak.
This video deserves a lot more views! Keep up the good work
Thank you my friend
The day I think a 20 year old car at 100k is cheap…. I made it . I love the e46 M3. Arguably the best m3 ever made.
agreed. It’s the GOAT M3 IMO.
Wow that thing is beautiful, congrats man.
Thank you
Hey @MiamiMiles which company did you ship through? I’m working on shipping my new LSB E46 from Washington and looking for a recommendation. Thanks!
Jay’s auto transport will help
+1 (954) 709-7541
The bring a trailer comment intro was so good. Individual M3s are too good. Glad to have one from BAT too.
Congrats man. Nothing better
Excited to see some e46 content! Was checking the auction constantly and was bummed you didn’t win, but it was meant to be.
Yes it was. I can’t believe it fell into my lap
Congratulations, Mickey! It's fantastic. So funny, we just spoke of my #1 goal/"dream" cars over time. You're working backwards. It's been the GT3 the last 12ish years, which replaced this, an LSB E46 M3 for 7 years. Next, you'd need to get a 2000 Honda/Acura Integra Type R. Last, would be a CRX/Si to be B16 VTEC swapped, modified, lightweighted, and tuned. Please continue to enable my vicarious living. Fulfill the list.
Love this my friend. Thank you for sharing your garage. Would love to own all of the cars that you have
@@MiamiMiles Oh, I really wish. Those have been my #1 DREAM cars over the years. I have not attained a single one. Our tastes sure coincide though. Go get that Type R. Watch Misha driving them/Hondas on the Nurburgring. He's driven everything and LOVES them. Maximum Fun Factor.
Congrats brother!!! Best E46 I ever saw!
Love you Gusti
Congratulations and thanks to gear22. 😂
Shout out to Gear22
I obsessed over that BaT auction. Subbed
Me too. I couldn’t get over this car
What a colour combo! Big congrats on getting such a rare e46 M3! It looks brand new
Enjoy it in good health 😊
Thank you my friend
Nice spec i had an 06 slicktop. A lot of fun to drive
Yes it is. I’m in love so far
Congrats on the win. I want one of those so badly
Plz get one. You won’t regret it
Congrats! best M3 ever made and the best color combo.
Agreed. I’m in love with it
What a beautiful color combo!
Agreed. In person it is breathtaking
Please add Competition (ZCP) wheels. Will make all the difference in the world.
Came in to say this too. Those wheels are made for the e46 M3
square style 67’s look better than ZCP wheels, sorry not sorry
Definitely thinking about it
No way keep the 18s
Wow that’s a gorgeous car
I watched this auction. It was pretty nuts. Very entertaining.
I enjoyed it
Wow!!!.. Out of words for how much it sold for. Beautiful gorgeous machine. Enjoy it. Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷…
Gracias hermano. Saludos
Love it !!!!
Thank you Cousin K-Nut
Wow that is a RIP for Gear22
Just picked up an Imola Comp pack and it's incredible how well the e46 has aged, the car is truly timeless.
Love the color combo, beautiful car man.
Imola is stunning. Congrats on the acquisition
Congrats man!! Buy the best and prosper
Thank you my friend
I used to work for BMW in Sydney when these came out and both the manual and SMG are amazing. Then you have the CSL what a weapon. Congrats on the purchase.
Thank you my friend.
Congratz bro! I currently own a PRISTINE 2002 LSB M3 Convertible SMG with less than 70k miles. Garage kept for over 10+ years and rarely see's the sun, I put maybe less than 1k miles a year on it. Seeing this auction and this video brought so much joy to me as it gave me some sense to what my car, could be worth if I ever wanted to sell it on BAT. Maybe sometime in the future. Enjoy my friend! Its a classic, I cant tell you how many car enthusiasts stop me at gas stations and red lights and offered to buy my car for cash lol
Whats LSB mean ?
I have one also only sees 1000 miles a year or less
Drive the damn thing, please
Love it man. Keep it and enjoy forever
I love the trolling, we need more of it :)
Plot twist: Gear22 and auction conspired against you.
Prolly. But it’s parked in my garage right now and I can’t help but smile
Damn super trollin 😂 congrats brooo
Love you uncle Pete!!!!!!!!
I’m in the comments looking for Gear22 lol Congrats! What a spec😊
Thank you my friend. Appreciate it
Sick car. I have a LSB Z3M and it gets so much attention
That’s amazing. LSB is the most beautiful color I’ve ever seen on a bimmer
I know its very tempting to daily, but with the very thick 10w60 these cars run the first cold miles are very harsh on the bearings, so only doing short drives can be damaging, just something to take into consideration
What do you recommend to get the temps up to before driving then?
@@MiamiMiles take it easy till oil reaches 180f. Basically keep it under 4k rpm
@@MiamiMilesCongrats! you have to drive it a few more miles to bring oil temp up to 210 …I would do a few “laps” in mine even if I was just going down to the grocery store. My other “unpopular” suggestion is try an oil that comes up to temp faster….in my case it was
Total 10W60 …but it ran slightly over 210 during the summer.
Dont understand the hoopla on the color combo. It sold more than a mint 98 NSX.
True… idk. It’s just pretty to me
Holy smokes what a find
Indeed. Thank you 👍🏻
DTS says thank you
what was the MSRP of this car when it was new😂
$58k
Wow! The color of this car pairs perfectly with this interior color.
Your next step should be to buy a 750S
750S should be the last internal combustion engine
765
Love it
Thank you my bro
It’s beautiful
Appreciate it
hey man im GEAR22 My bank just shut me out of my account and i couldn't get the money over you got lucky!!
Lmao. Love you Gear22 ❤️
@@MiamiMiles just trolling! saw this on some articles crazy you actually got it!
i have a '06 m3 smg with 48k miles! daily driver too!
You got good taste
Awesome spec, hope you don't do anything dumb to it. Congrats.
I won’t. It’s too damn perfect
Don't turn of traction control in the wet like the 600LT. ;) The EDP clips were perfection.
Lmao. I won’t
You could always turn this into the need for speed most wanted build! Make it even more iconic
It’s 1/1 why the fuck would you destroy it????
I would do that to a non one of one haha
Brother drop the leg routine
🤣
OTS and co right? They’re good guys.
Yes that’s correct. These guys are awesome
No better feeling.
I used to auto-x with a dude who had one, but black interior... his wasn't a manual though. I used to tease him about that. Ha. Great car man... enjoy
This is like one of 7 in this this configuration in the US. Sold by OTS and Co.
Thank you my friend
ECS makes a supercharger kit...
Definitely something I’ll take a look at
I've daily driven my 04 M3 for the last 8 years. Quite possibly the best 8 years of my life.
I’ve daily driven it for a couple weeks. The best couple weeks of my life haha
Beautiful car , but it’s definitely not the only one in the world with those options , but it may be the lowest mileage example .
Only one in US with these options
Mickey that’s crazy 😱
Thank you my friend. Can’t wait for you to drive it next time you come in town
seems to me like you were bid up on BAT....
Could be… I ended up getting a significant discount so no big deal
Congrats on purchasing the best E46 M3 💯
Thank you my friend
What a damn waste of money … this is what’s wrong with the car community now. Over paying for shit
Overpaying is subjective. There’s one and I wanted it. So there’s a market 😀
I sold mine for 15k back in 07/08
Crazy how times change
How do you know gear22 doesn’t know the seller and was just there to pump the price up??? Anyone can pump up an auction like that opened to any non vetted “bidder”. Fill me in please ! Also it’s cooler than a CSL
It takes two to tango, and doing that above reserve will cost 5% if the shill “wins”.
Yep. I agree
Back in 2005 I bought a 2003 E46 convertible, manual transmission steel gray metallic on gray interior. I loved that car. I'd love to drive another one to see how I feel about it 20 years later
Still fun to drive. A great addition to a garage that has something faster as well
Congratulations! Unicorn :)
Thank you 👍🏻
I just payed 9k for mine lol
Perfect
Mickey lookin yoked
😂
I love e46's but that car is not worth 100k lol
It is to me ❤️
It hasn’t occurred to you that the reason “Gear22” outbid you and couldn’t come up with the cash is that he was the same guy that was selling the car?
AND he paid the fee? Why would a random bidder do that?
You think that guy was just being nice?
Maybe… but there was no guarantee I’d buy
