    Didn't Understand What I Have...

    Hello all,

    I know that I have a great vehicle that has factory modifications beyond a standard 330ci, but had no idea the vehicle carried such a unique following until today. This group has converted me to a ZHP enthusiast! Thank you for unblinding me from the mundane and commonplace that I have been in.

    About the vehicle:
    "Hello, my name is Blaine and I am a ZHP junkie." I purchased the vehicle 2.5 years ago and it ONLY had 1,124 miles on it. I knew it was a gem! No modifications... yet.

    What I would like to do:
    I have owned other BMW models in the past and modified them, but not much more than a chip upgrade or lower end exhaust.

    Do you have any suggestions for mods to the ZHP? Is it worth doing?

    Welcome. Honestly, there are fun mods here and there but if I had one with ONLY 1,124 miles, I'd keep it stock. That's awesome!

    How many miles are on the car now?

    Also +1 to keeping it stock. You probably have one of the lowest milage ZHP's out there!!

    It has 24K on it now, but good point. I'll have to put more thought into it.

    Thank you! I'm impressed with the activity of the site already.

    I was in the market again for another 3 series BMW (after giving Audi a shot - big disappointment) and I stopped into a local BMW dealer at the perfect time. It was owned by an older gentleman that had hip replacement followed by cancer never having the opportunity to drive his 330. After he went into remission he wanted to reward himself and traded it in for a M6. I happened to be there at the right time. Lucky me!

    Welcome to the Mafia! You have a real jewel in your hands. I'd keep it stock for a while considering how low the mileage is.
