Hey everyone! I had a ZHP once. But I wasn't happy with the speed and decided to go from a beautiful German engineered car to a brutish American made car (nothing like what is made now in 2015). What I bought was the much sought after Terminator Cobra, 2004 to be exact. But it had one drastic flaw... it was a convertible.
Well, I got older and got more into my job and I decided it was time to leave my parents and buy a house. And the down payment money was going to come from the Cobra. I sold that car (made hand over fist), and moved into my nice house in the city. But there was one issue... I was driving the disgusting monstrosity that was my high school car, a 1995 240sx SE. I'm talking peeling paint, dry rotted sun roof seal, etc.
I thought I would be financially smart and finance my house for 15 years instead of the traditional 30. I would end up paying way less interest and get at the principal of the loan much faster. But that left no budget for a new car. You ever try to take a lady out in a 1995 240sx with the cabin noise of a G6 jet with a window down? It doesn't work.
Anyways, I have a sibling that sells cars. And she got a trade-in on an excellent 2003 BMW 325i 4 door. It had 50,000 miles and had the most comprehensive dealer service history I've ever seen. I mean oil changes on the dot and even had all of the BG services done at every fluid change. The prior owner even sprung for the complete 50k mile service tune up (new rotors, pads, spark plugs, etc). Blah blah blah, the car is in such good shape. I jumped on it and ended up grabbing it for $7,300 after tags and taxes.
Long story short, I hate myself for selling my ZHP. What a sweet car it was but I was young and thought I needed something fast. I'm just thankful this car came around. Gonna drive this puppy until the wheels fall off.
