What type of racing are you looking to do? The prevalence of E46 spec racing, Lucky Dog Racing, etc. has driven prices up for most half-decent examples. Frankly a lot of donor cars are very tired and in need of a major overhaul. Even if you aren't looking to do full wheel-to-wheel this website is a great place to start. The ZHP premium is not worth it unless you find a deal

I too looked in the rustbelt (near MN) area and gave up the E46 search to buy a rust-free 99' Miata instead - and proceeded to build a full half-cage HPDE car. I respect the desire to complete the ground up project yourself. Everyone should do that once in their life even if it is not most efficient or cheapest route. BMWCCA classifieds, Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist the best places to look
