This is the story: Earlier this year I had good luck and won a free alignment with one of our Chapter's sponsors, Shade Tree Garage. I have an '06 ZHP Coupe with 162k miles and was planning to...
Welcome to the party. Car looks great. Now there are 3 ZHPs in our neighborhood.
I currently have RainX wiper blades on my coupe and they have been great. I visited Costco today and they have Goodyear Hybrid wiper blades for $8.99 a blade, no matter what size. They looked fine...
So this week the stock shift knob decided to eject its plastic cover. The knob itself is well-worn after 9 years. Now looking to replace it. Don't want to replace with stock. Thinking need something...
So I got the second recall notice from BMW NA. This was for the driver-side airbag. Will contact my dealer to see what the waitlist is like. The passenger side got replaced a couple of months ago....
Wow, lots of energy here. Part of my thinking is to have another car to "row the gears." It's not that I'm bored, but as a DD it's not possible to wring out the ZHP in my 15 minute commute. Well, I...
All - thanks for your feedback. Every time I get in to drive it i say "this is a great drive-best BMW I've owned." Hearing you say that it is past garage-queen status is so true and puts things in...
So I love my ZHP and have put over 120k miles on it since buying it CPO. It has been extremely reliable and I've done the "usual" preventative maintenance items. As the miles have accumulated I...
Brief background - took my car in for an oil change at dealer and coincidentally they had just got in a replacement airbag which they installed. They also performed a courtesy vehicle inspection. I...
Great pictorial recap. Enjoyed seeing the journey. Wishing you more adventures to put in the photo album.
I find that below 45 degrees the tires start to get more "slippery". Aggressive starts induce wheelspin before the DSC kicks in (and then you're not accelerating as quickly as desired). Below 40...
Took me a while to figure out what to title this post.
So the cold weather came rushing in before I had a chance to take off the PSS tires/wheels and swap in the snow tires/wheels. I usual...
There is definitely coupe love. It has the "more sporty" or sexier body. I've also posted this in other threads, the coupe trumps the sedan in this area: wind buffeting. I have a coupe and it is...
Good points are made about DD tire choice. However, to say something is a waste on the street is making assumptions about how one perceives value. The same logic applies to suspension or other...
BavAuto sells them, as do other suppliers. The rust can't be cleaned and then the jack painted?
Looks like a well-cared-for car. Even after reading what maintenance items you replaced, my first guess was going to be DISA. as gmurphy suggests. New parts can go bad. I guess more basically, you...
This is an interesting thread on 2addicts. A ZHP now-former-owner shares thoughts on getting an M235 after 10 years of ZHP ownership. He's probably a member here; I also recognized signature lines...
Beautiful shots! Thanks for sharing.
Your car looks great (that what we can see) and extrapolating, guessing it is that way inside. One of the BMW's I've owned was an E90 with sport package, etc. It was highly capable and competent. ...
Not that this has to be said...Phil, truly outstanding work and always a treat to see your work. I need to get my car to you but first my hood and front bumper need a respray due to chips.
Welcome. Nice looking coupe. Lucky find with that low mileage. From NJ.
OP, what do you need the tire to do? The many replies give you a wide range of responses. What's your budget? Have you decided that you will go with separate summer and winter setups or not?
...
Another beautiful job. Thanks for sharing.
How the heck can a brand new car like this (i.e., limited and special) have so many swirls/scuffs/etc. done to it?
Being sold by NJ BMW Club member; very reputable. Car looks beautiful.
