New Member, New ZHP - long time E46 owner
Hello All,
Well, I have owned an E46 nearly constantly since 2001. Currently I have 5 of them at home, 4 of them are road worthy and will be kept. One is a parts donor that I had fixed up, but was then totaled and the body is unsalvageable.
But this is my first ZHP. I have been looking for one since last spring, but only very seriously since this spring. I think that the prices for a decent one seem to have jumped over this summer as I was getting very frustrated. I missed several very good deals by hours or minutes, but I finally settled on this one. It has higher mileage than I was hoping at 168k, but it seems in pretty decent shape and my son really liked the color combo, so that was worth a bit extra to me.
It is a 2005 Sapphire Black 6 speed sedan with Natural Brown leather and black cube trim. Interior condition is quite good for mileage. The paint needs quite a bit of work, but it is good enough. Mechanically it is better than the last 3 E46s I have bought, but of course needs some attention. Most importantly is that it is totally stock - never been modified in any way as far as I can tell so far.
All in all, a good candidate to bring back to rude health. Here it is...
'05 ZHP 6MT Sedan, '05 M3 6MT Coupe, '03 325i ZSP 5MT Touring and a few other BMWs
