New San Diego member -- that just bought Marcus's red '05 ZHP Coupe :P

[tomjonesrocks]

Marcus of course sent out the famous "Selling my..." newsletter...I'm the lucky buyer who happened to take ownership of the car. Here's my official introduction to the forum. Have lurked and posted a few times during my search--pretty much happened into the fortunate position of owning the car I suspect due to having money ready to go and convenient proximity (I must live like 5 miles from Marcus).

Car was (obviously) in pretty much immaculate condition with 61k miles.

I'd post photos--but am sure most members are pretty much familiar with the car from Marcus's detailed thread on it:

Doesn't really need anything right now other than an oil change and for me to pick and choose through how I want the car programmed (auto locks, etc.)

We're still getting to know the car from a driving standpoint--but happening into this purchase is the best thing that's happened for us in awhile.

Congrats and Welcome, a nice bunch here. Oh, and great car!

[BlackNTan]

Wow, that's just one hot ride. Many congratulations, welcome to our forum and if you hadn't bought it from Marcus, we wouldn't be hearing about Porsches (ugh). Just kidding!

[Maximus57]

Congrats on the car. I know it better than anyone. It's a peach.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Scott, welcome. Love the car. The previous owners were good stewards of that car. :biggrin It's now in your hands. We know you'll be a great owner.

Welcome to that family. You did pick up a real cream puff of a car. I'm glad that you are part of the community that it came from.

On a side note, it's not every day that you see two previous owners of a car hanging out with the new one.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

^^Very true. The car's only owners are members of this forum.

The ZHP Mafia community is not very large.

At some point, I want our community to get to the point where we know many of the cars that come up for sale. That's when you really know you're in a small community.

t ...where we know many of the cars that come up for sale. That's when you really know you're in a small community.

But we'd be BIG TIME!

It's a piece of junk. Total lemon. You should return the car to the seller (I hear he's a shady guy) and demand a refund.




Kidding of course - that car's a total creampuff. It needs to be flogged well on a track. :)

^^ :biggrin

:hi Welcome and congrats on the purchase! Looking forward to future updates...

[johnrando]

An official welcome. Looking forward to seeing you and the car at some SoCal events.

[Mtnman]

Welcome. That car will always have a little extra to its history.

[Johal E32]
