We have the story about this vehicle first BMWBLOG.com discovered and of course we don't want to withhold the vehicle from you. So, have you heard of this before? BMW M3 E46 Touring heard from in Dubai Slick custom car was built? The conversion is really something special because it combines two different BMWs from the same generation: one 325 Touring , and a M3 coupe. And the idea behind the way it is constructed is simply brilliant. BMW did have one in 2000 M3 Touring in E46 style built, but this remained secret until 2016. That didn't come until 2022 G81 as the first official M3 Touring onto the market. But for fans of the E46 there was nothing comparable until then. But Slick custom car has now made the dream come true. You have the popular one S54 six-cylinder and sports suspension from the M3 Coupé into the 325 Touring installed.

And the standard station wagon had an automatic transmission installed ex works. But the completed project car is now enjoying a manual transmission – just like the M3 E46 Touring concept car from BMW in 2000. Every detail was taken into account during the conversion to turn the 325i Touring into one full-fledged M3 Touring close. rearview mirror, Rear reinforcement, side skirts, Seats, Steering wheel and most other parts were taken directly from the M3 and perfectly integrated into the 325i. To the M3 exhaust To fit it, the tuner even had to adjust the floor of the car. And also the front apron has been modified to give the typical appearance of the rare M3 CSL to recreate. Of course, the adjustments went much further.

A car like it came from the BMW factory!

You can still see the typical ones M3 fender, the bonnet with power dome and that M3 front apron, all of which have been adapted to the body to create the optical illusion of a real one M3 E46 Touring to create. The result looks as if it came directly from BMW, as it is an extremely successful replica of the actually unique piece Chrome Shadow Metallic at a hunt. Slick custom car decided in view of that Lacquer dress but for a more striking blue color. And of course we should also note that the Headlight washers missing and the Rims are different. Another visible difference is the black kidneys and the complete Custom brake system with black saddles. The conversion may not be an exact copy of the original, but it is a wonderful homage to the unique performance station wagon.
