New soon to be ZHP Owner in AL

[fw_fw]

Well, after months of sorta searching and lately really searching I have found and signed for my ZHPMafia membership ticket, a 2006 330ci 6MT with 76kmiles. She still has to be shipped my way, but I'm stoked to finally have another fun weekend BMW to go with my X1 xDrive35i M-Sport daily driver. She should get shipped early next week, so now the waiting begins.....

Here are a few pics from the dealer:

Seeing that the ZHPmafia family is going to be getting together only a couple hours north of me later this year I may try to join in the fun!!

Now I have to work on a sig for the forum......

(Fist bump back at ya)

All I have is pics for now, as this was a long distance transaction (San Diego).. 1 Owner, elderly gentleman, always in San Diego, who traded it into the Audi dealer. Clean Carfax and Autocheck. Last 7 is PD99972. Price was right at $11,800.

Internet sales guy I dealt with said they normally immediately wholesale 10 year old cars, but this one was in such great condition they kept it to sell themselves. It's a scenario that matches all the BMW's I've bought, this being my 4th, all used. Buy them from a prestige high dollar dealer (BMW/Audi/MB/Lexus/etc), as they cannot afford to have crappy poor condition used cars sitting on their lot visible to all the doctors/lawyers/vicepresidents who come car shopping. Only way I'll buy one longdistance without picking it up and finalizing the deal myself....

Thanks for the welcome gang. Can't wait till she gets here. Now is the nervy part, having spent all that money without having seen her in person. Even though I've bought all of my previous BMW's sight unseen as well, they have always came out better than expected. Hope that I'm 4 for 4!!

$11.8k for a manual and 76k is definitely a good price, nice work!

If you don't mind, you should input your data in our spreadsheet that looks at prices paid vs miles, when purchased, etc.
