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. |

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... Before:  After:  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:   Sorry for the highjack. Keep up the good work. You will be glad you have these skills for many years to come  Tim K |

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...
