spotted at a local dealership (Fayetteville, NC) when I got my sub frame inspection done a few weeks ago.
Went and talked to the guy, in his late 20's, served in the military, he said.
I took a cell phone pic (with his permission), and had a nice chat about ZHPs, and he also admired my coupe, and took a pic. He came in to get the Roundel on the hood replaced and to get all weather mats.
His is a 2004 with 65k miles. This is the only other "Live" ZHP i have seen since I got mine.

Did you buy a vert? What?
I saw a Imola red zhp sedan on rosedale/burrows run road on monday or tuesday about 7-8PM.
Dane, whose ZHP is that sitting next to yours?
My buddies. Looked for a MB for like two years...while I picked his brain about BMW's. He finally came to his senses.
Good job.Quote:

Very rare around here. I did see one last spring then I few months later saw it online for sale. I'm not sure if he sold it or his ad just expired and he never bothered to renew it. It was a TiAg sedan, 6mt, leather with 80,xxx miles on it. IIRC he was asking $14,000. I did save his phone number just in case someone might be interested.
Just moved to San Diego from the SF bay area. Up there, I only saw a ZHP maybe once a month, maybe. Down here, wow. They are everywhere! At least one a day! I am now in the Escondido and constantly see a silver (TiAg?) and a black ZHP.
Please tell us about yourself in the intro thread. I have only seen one other zhp in VA...lol
SC, I am in your neighborhood. The problem is that I never drive the car! LOL.
Introduce yourself in the New Members forum.
I used to live in San Francisco as well (when I was a journalist at the San Francisco Chronicle).
I never see any others around here. Mine is the only one I've ever actually seen in person in fact. I always hope to see another one. I see M3's pretty regularly, just no ZHP's...
Saw a gorgeous Alpine Coupe last week. Was trying to turn onto the road I was on and turned on behind me. When I got stuck behind another car, he passed and not even a glance. :(
Some people just don't know, I guess...
If this picture was at all decent, you'd be able to see the imola red ZHP coupe. It's the car with the bluish xenons. Haha.

:eek: I just saw an AW ZHP coupe with only 17k miles :eek:
ooops - it's mine :D
I knew you were going to say that!Quote:

M Tech II fron bumper, rear bumper diffuser, ///M sideskirts, ///M 3 spoke syerring wheel, 6 speed transmission w/ ///M shift knob.
We have an entire thread with zhp knoledge in it. Check it out. The above is just the tip o the iceberg...
To me, the easiest giveaway is the Style 135 wheels (stock on ZHP, and as far as I know not available on other packages). Very distinctive. However, it's tough to pick these out on a moving vehicle, so then you go to all the little things Dane pointed out. And of course, some of us run different wheels for part or all of the year, so those other little touches are especially helpful in identifying a ZHP.Quote:

I had to laugh at that and I wondered if they were driving their husbands car (but that would be age-ist and sexist (but I'm in my late 40's so scratch the age-ist)). :-)
You should have flashed them the ZHP Mafia gang sign.
Imola Red ZHP sedan I have seen around Kennett Square/Chadds Ford, PA several times. I've been in the Alpine White E36 M3 sedan or the Alpine White E30 318is; if the person with that car is on here.
I finally saw another ZHP in my area this week. It was parked at a hardware store near where I work outside the North Gates of LSU. Been there all week so I am gonna assume they work there. Its a grey sedan. Had a gnarly dent in the rear passenger door, but is otherwise stock in appearance and very clean.
Saw one today. Imola red....lookin like a 4wd.....totally stock. It was down in Norfolk (right next to odu campus)
Saw one too. Silver. Bone stock. Right outside my subdivision. Girl was on her cell and putting makeup on. Automatic prolly :(
There was one other ZHP at the rally. Silver, not stock, owned by Viral from Active Autowerks. Told him about the site maybe he'll join in.
Saw my car's twin on the way home from work today. Unknown year, black, sedan, windows were so tinted I couldn't see inside. I gave whoever was driving it a thumbs up as they went by, for their fine taste in cars.
He was prolly giving you the finger...lol. Hopefully not though.
Very few nice people out there. Anytime I see an E46...I try to make eye contact.....but rarely do I get a connection....
I see a ton of them around here, but I work at night now so I don't see a lot of cars in general anymore. This is the first time I've seen another zhp in person.
When I drove the Jeep around I would get Jeep waves all the time from other Jeep owners driving theirs. The other day I got a BMW chin nod from a guy in a pretty sweet E90. I was all excited :gabe
It's funny how little things like that are cool. Like I get people checking out my car, but its rare that I get a thumbs up or a wave in it. It always makes my day.
If I see you....I will wave.
If I saw your car in person here in Baton Rouge I would most likely flip out. I'd probably cause a huge scene and make an illegal U turn and try to catch up with you :rofl
So make sure you call first. :shifty :biggrin
Lol...I won't just drop in....hehe
HaHa so yeah, you have to contact me before you travel to Baton Rouge. I think the metro council just passed that article... :rofl
But if the evil hands of fate ever force you to come down here, there are some restaurants you will have to check out.
I like to eat....ahem..(mean face on)....Kodiak and re-bar
