Hello from Kansas City!
I'm a BMW owner since 1984 and I recently bought a 330ci ZHP at the recommendation of my german mechanic. He said that these cars are the best value for the dollar and one of the most reliable models BMW has ever made, in his opinion. He talked me out of the M3 in favor of the ZHP as a daily driver.
I bought my ZHP in NC from a Mafia member. I could tell over the phone that he had taken excellent care of the car...as a true enthusiast should. After we agreed on a deal I flew out, picked up the car, and drove her back to KC at the peak of the fall foliage in the mountains of South Carolina and Tennessee. It was during that drive that I totally bonded with my new baby. Wow, what a car. It begged for me to take all the backroad twisties I could find, and then wanted more. She performed flawlessly on that trip and has had no problems in six months. My mechanic may not be seeing me very often.
I was drawn to this forum because of the wealth of seemingly reliable information as well as the friendly and respectful way the members communicate with each other. I am honored to be included as a member and look forward to making new friends with a common passion. Members passing through the Heatland can PM me for a bed and a hot shower if willing to talk cars.
Also, I am looking for some light wheels I can use for the track this summer if anyone has a set gathering dust or has a recommendation.
Cheers
