I have an E46 M3 as my DD. I would love to put that S54 engine in a CSL or 2002.
Those flared out 2002's that you guys are posting are making me drool.

Yes, they are the 40 DCOEs! I really like the 190SL, such great lines. ;)

Good for you Mike! It looks fantastic!

I did the same, sold everything I had of value to buy my '02 and took it with me to the community college (while in still in highschool).

Unfortunately, it had accident damage hiding under >1" of bondo...

Soon after, I sold the car to an extended family member to help pay for school. It was given to his 16yr-old for his b-day. It was not cared for...

------------------Fast forward ~17 years---------------------

This was taken last week . The city dragged it off their property as it was in violation of the Derelict Vehicle By-Law.

My brother happened to be driving by and snapped this pic:

Absolutely gorgeous car, Mike. Four years isn't bad at all-I know a few people who are taking 10 years plus to finish up restorations, real life seems to get in the way...

Still color sanding & buffing....but getting closer to reassembly.
