    Hello again...I'd like to share my ZHP story and introduce...Scarlett.

    So. I purchased my first ZHP and first BMW from Robby/bmwtech113 yesterday in Knoxville, TN and it could not have been more fun!

    Left around 5:30 AM Friday with the gf (who was kind/awesome enough to accompany me on the journey from Vienna and who has been at the forefront of my ZHP musings since I started looking a few months ago). Arrived around 2 PM, met Robby and Scarlett for the first time in person. The car was exactly as I expected it to be...excellent. We made the transaction and Robby said his farewells.

    We had some Bojangles (gf is from NY...she got her fair share of chicken and biscuits on this trip!) and we were back on the road...

    Score another ZHP for the Old Dominion!

    Stopped off at Virginia Tech and stayed the night with my brother...let's just say we both have red cars and he was very impressed:

    The rest of the drive was well...smooth...solid...(those same words from my "What does it feel like to drive" thread I now definitely speak myself) and to be honest, one of the best driving experiences I've had. I parked her in the driveway...went inside...and within a couple minutes had to drive around the block a few more times! I already love this car and am looking forward to getting to know her...oh, and all of you, of course (looking into heading up to NJ)!
