Hello all, and thanks Mimalmo for letting me know about the forum!:thumbsup

I've owned a number of BMWs over the past 12 or so years and am proud to have a new to me 05 Black Sapphire ZHP sedan ready to be loaded onto a truck and headed to it's new home here in Plymouth, MN.

The time came for my girlfriend to get rid of her TL and being the nut that I am I immediately took her down to the BMW dealer to drive a 330i. After driving one she was sold (of course), and I began the search online for the right car. After coming very close to an Imola car in Florida, and a silver car in Georgia, I found a Sapphire black on black leather sedan in Beaverton, Oregon. Auto, Cold weather pack, Premium, Xenons, and only 48k miles!

Other than being an auto (her preference) it has all the right options. We're both very excited, and the mods have already been ordered lol. Clears all around, BMW Performance grilles, aux in, and a set of 17" 330ci Sport wheels for the winter.

On to the pics - this is the best I have of the car - the dealership took down the car before I had a chance to save them. But it should be here at the end of next week and I'll have more then!

nice find. welcome and good to see you got in before the doors close

what is it with the former TL drivers? (there's at least 4 of us now) was it a 2002 cause that would just be weird...

Welcome to the family. And that appears to be a nice, clean car. Take care of it and it will take care of you.

Thanks for the welcome guys! I really do hope it is as clean as it looks in the pictures.

One thing that isn't so clean is the worn steering wheel, has anyone done an SMG wheel on an auto car here? I've seen the conversion on the X5 but not an E46.

You don't actually need to use the affiliate link. However, you should mention ZHP Mafia for a 10% discount.

Thanks for the advice - I've been in contact with coby already and will most likely have him do the work if I can find an SMG wheel.

Welcome!

I'd highly recommend cobywheel as well. Just installed my new wheel and it looks and feels fantastic.

Glad to see you joined here Brian. I'm sure you will enjoy owning a ZHP, they're great cars.

WTF is up with no pics of the E30 M3?


Also, I can show you how clean a wheel can get with a towel, some water and a fabric pill shaver. I think you'd be surprised.

I'm definitely looking forward to it.

Ever since I sold my 91 318iS I've wanted a special non-M daily, I think the ZHP is a natural progression. If only it was a manual lol

And since you asked...
