Only thing keeping me from picking up an e46.
I think that'll always be an issue. Even if you get it replaced and fixed, it will still need replacing and fixing in the future. It's just a part that appearantly just keeps breaking.
Why does BMW keep using it? It's time for a design overhual.
I was reading up on the i-vtec, it's pretty much... well better. I'm sure in the future if they wanted too, they could do double i-vtec on both camshafts...
Dang vano's, it's a good when it works and stay healthy...
I would just much rather prefer if they came out with and without vanos option, I'd take the lower hp/torque with peice of mind than higher hp/torque and knowing you ahve to constantly fix/replace the vanos.

Well, the vanos and the subframe tearouts.

To buy an older e46, you're going to basically have to throw another 5 g's on top of that to get it running "safe".

The problem with a large majority of the mid to higher end Euro sports luxo cruisers is that they are brilliant until your warranty wears off. Then they cost more to maintain than buying a newer one.
