Brought home my ZHP on Tuesday after she passed her PPI.
2005 330i ZHP
77k miles
Silver Grey Metallic
Black interior /w silver cube trim
Automatic
I was mainly looking for a normal 330i when I happened upon a ZHP and fell in love with it compared to the base model. Plus, coming from an E36 M3, it felt much closer in handling and road feel than a base model. Then did my research on ZHPs, and the one I found had its interior in excellent shape, low mileage, was well maintained, just has a few exterior defects (some scratches, windshield chips, broken seal on a headlight, but no dents). Making plans to get the exterior stuff fixed up.
I will definitely miss my E36 M3, however was looking to move to a sedan (kids to cart around on weekends), newer, lower mileage, and since it is my DD, I don't enjoy a manual in slow traffic. It will take time to get used to an automatic again...
Pictures of the exterior are before I have had a chance to wash/clay/wax her. My wife started spring cleaning which means she takes over the garage. Yesterday I fought back and made room for the car, but likely need to clean some more stuff out to have enough room to work in there.
