That engine doesn't exist...

Do you mean the M Coupe / Roadster 3.2L inline 6?

The best place to look is just on someplace like ebay.com or half.com. Now, because of the newness of the car, I'm not sure they have one out yet. I know they JUST came out with the normal E46 manual...so, if they aren't on someplace like amazon.com maybe, I'd suggest going to your local dealer (or calling one) and asking them! Good luck on your hunt...

Here is one that covers 96-98 and since the M Roadster was available in 98 it should include the 3.2: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...930345-7768907

OK so far I've got a "lot" of great info here, now this question is a bit weird but just to satisfy my curiousity <<<someone on this site " mentioned " on the 3.2 "6"..they used up to 7 qt's of oil<<<hummm sounds wierd to me <<<maybe I'm wrong" just changed the oil in the Z but only took 6 qts>>>my 2 cents anyway ..
