I've decided to list for sale my 2005 ZHP Convertible. I purchased it from the original owner last May here in the Denver area. We've only put about 1,000 miles on it since then - we love having it...

Yeah - I sold a car long-distance to a private party last year, and that's more or less the process. I actually provided the title to the car first, and then the buyer sent a cashier's check for the...

Know how you feel.

I just purchased a silver/black 'vert this past weekend.

I would have much preferred white, blue (any of them) or Imola, particularly with the natural brown interior.
...

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!

It's nice to be "officially" part of the community as an owner!

Hey there -

After flirting with ZHPs for a few years now, wife and I finally pulled the trigger today.

We've had our share of "enthusiast" BMWs - I had an E39 530i sport/manual and an E90...

I've been checking this one out - it's still available, at least as of today.

The listed price has been all over the place - based on the post above, it was as low as $11,999, then $12,999, and...

Oh boy - that's bad. I sold four cars earlier this year, all but one to out-of-state buyers, and whenever I got a verbal commitment from a buyer, they basically had right of first refusal. One of...

I agree that it's priced well, except perhaps for the accident this past December. From speaking with the owner earlier this week, sounds like there was body work done on a couple of the rear...

Good luck with it! I was actually planning on looking at it this weekend if I could've found the time, but you've beaten me to the punch! :)

Happy to see it go to an enthusiast though.

It's just a very specific market is all.

If someone is "generally" looking for a german sports sedan for around $15k, then yes, there are a lot of choices that are probably more appealing to the...

Well, if for no other reason than encouragement, I'd like to buy your car. :)

If it were closer to me (Colorado), I'd probably be stronger in considering it, though I'm not opposed to having a...

I immediately expressed interest when this was originally posted here, but yeah, as you know from our exchanged PMs, for me personally, the price is a bit high for the miles. But with the...

Congratulations! Just in time for the spring weather here in CO (well, not today).

Alright - I may be crazy (feel free to tell me so), but as the price continues to drop on this car in TN, do you think there's a price point at which the cosmetic issues are worth dealing with? For...

I received the same response on my email request. I think it's simply an all out scam, where the car doesn't actually exist (or at least in the "seller's" possession). As mentioned above, the VIN...

Interested - sent you a PM.

I had been eyeing that one for awhile - as soon as it dipped to $18,880 I made an inquiry on it but it sold quickly at that point.

The responses on this thread have definitely opened up my mind to higher mileage ZHPs with solid maintenance history.

Opens up the search a bit! :)

Must have been frustrating to have driven all that way and find the car not consistent with the dealership's representation.

The pictures actually look decent - which just goes to show you that...

I sent an e-mail request as well, just to see what the response would be, and never heard anything. Not surprising, but I was at least curious.

That's good insight on the mileage considerations. Thanks!

I'm trying to be patient on the search. I really would like "reasonable" miles of like 70-80k or less, but I'm starting to realize that if the car has broken the 100k mile barrier but has been...

Ha! That was a picture taken a year ago when we purchased the cars (coincidentally, we found both those, local, within a week of each other).

I've just sold the 335, and my wife still drives...

All good points - thanks for sharing.

Definitely hard to pin down values in general on these cars, or any older BMW. As most of you pointed out, attention to maintenance and repairs is a major...

Well, I guess when I say "90k" I mean "90k's".

I suppose California would indeed by a desirable market due to its favorable climate for the cars. It's definitely on my list of places to look...
