The starter did go TU a week after I bought it. That's it. Minor oil leak near the front crank seal that wets up the power steering hose.

The interior on the E46 likes to peel its paint. That car has the sport package, which is what you want. If you get it for free, or a few thousand, it's worth it. It does look a little neglected. What is the maintenance history?
The maintenance history is "sometimes".

It's been sitting in their garage for quite a while, don't think it's been driven in over 4 years so I was very surprised that it even started and I was able to take it out of the garage. But I'd essentially inherit it and take it off their hands. My brother in-law who used to drive it is interested in sharing the costs to rehab it - said it could be his car to drive anytime he's in town (which isn't often....).
