E46 M3 Shift knob

I was looking at some E46 M3s then I saw that some of them have all leather around it. I got one that matches the interior trim. Anyone know if that was an extra option or I got lucky?

You mean without the lighted pattern?

i think if you got the luxury package it was leather wrapped. as well as nappa throughout the interior. the M i drove had it matching the trim as well

Did you get to take an E46 M3 for a spin? Yeah, I have the luxury package and it's leather wrapped.

Yeah, unless you get it up into high revs you can feel the full glory.

Oh, but I did when I test drove it, the salesman was nuts and hit the speed limiter with only 300 miles on the car, I did 125mph. Oh, a tip for all you people out there, don't buy a used LSB M3.
