In 2012 it went to North Carolina with the previous owner, who I found it on E46 Fanatics from. It was originally delivered in October of 2001 in New Jersey and spent a little over a year there before landing in Austin, Texas where it remained for the next decade.
Originally optioned as a 5-speed 325iT in Topaz Blue over Grey Leather with the Luxury and Cold Weather Packages it also features Xenon headlights, fog lights, parking distance control (PDC), and Harmon Kardon premium sound. It originally came to us on consignment for a Glen Shelly regular who also owns a specialty suspension shop and daily drives an S14-swapped square taillight BMW 2002. It has been Alex’s personal car for the last two years. This 2002 M3 S54-swaped 325i Sport Wagon is one of those top-tier examples. The end result is the car that BMW should have built, an M-powered wagon that is both exclusive-because nobody else has one-and practical because it’s a wagon! Summary A proper swap should have functional power steering, air conditioning, a clean engine bay, and all of the E46 M3 underpinnings-and the price varies with highly finished examples commanding significant premiums over the cobbled together projects at the bottom of the spectrum. It’s not a small undertaking, but not unreasonable for the skilled enthusiast.
BMW S54 E46 M3 SPECS SERIES
Hardcore enthusiasts have been solving that problem for years by swapping the S54 into the E46 3 Series Sport Wagon. Unfortunately, that chassis only came in a coupe or a convertible-no sedan, and no touring (for us wagon lovers). A pull to its screaming 8000-RPM redline is a smile-evoking experience that is only made better by the communicative and composed E46 chassis. The S54 won multiple engineering awards upon its release and, at the time, it produced the highest horsepower-per-liter for a normally aspirated production engine. At the heart of the E46 M3 was the 333-horsepower S54B32 engine, an evolution of an architecture that reaches back to the original M535i and M1. The E46 generation M3 was the last of a legacy of normally aspirated, inline 6-cylinder M cars that defined the marque for a generation.
