New member in Texas

Glad to find this site. I live in College Station, Texas about an hour north of Houston. I am not yet a ZHP owner but hope to be soon. I currently drive a 2013 Accord EX that bores the snot out of me but does a good job taking the kids to school (I have twins in kindergarten). Every day they're not in school I drive a '96 Miata that I've set up for track and autocross duty and maintain myself (roll bar, ultra shield seats and harnesses, suspension, brakes, intake, catback, cooling, etc). I hope to keep that car forever, but am ready to dump the Accord for something much more engaging, and the ZHP is currently at the top of my list for its proven dynamic capabilities. It seems like the ideal car for reliable school bus duty Mon-Fri and laps at the track on Sat. So if any of you come across one for sale in my neck of the woods, below is what I'm looking for. Thanks for putting together this great online resource for researching and maintaining these cars!

Year(s):'02-'05
Budget: $15k max
Desired location of vehicle:Texas or nearby
Desired Mileage: as little as possible :)
Transmission type: must be manual
Desired number of Doors: 4
Desired Color combos: prefer to avoid black - can't keep it clean in our town
Desired Packages: ZHP
Funds lined up? Yes
Have a car you need to sell first? No

Welcome! $15k will buy you a top-notch example. Be patient and settle on the "right" car - no need for compromises when your budget is that high. GLWS!

Welcome to the site. Always good to have more Texans here.

Do you have an interior preference?

Welcome!

Good to meet another Texan, though from your username it looks like we're rivals :)

No strong preferences on interior, though I tend to prefer black or tan rather than grey. But that wouldn't be a deal killer. I like the power lumbar support and from what I've read leather is better than the alcantara in terms of longevity, but again, not a big deal to me. Prior history and mechanical condition are much more important in my book.

Yeah, don't remind me. I contacted him immediately when I saw the ad, but he'd just set up the deal. I missed out by a day. Such is life. I'm hoping another that nice will come up soon.

Welcome.
