My dad spotted this one at a smog place in downtown Livermore today.
*edit*
Dad said it was the smog shop's owner's girlfriend's car. Owner has a tuned S4 making 430hp. Not bad.
Sounds like a good guy
Saw a fake zhp with chrome trim and donut wheels, had am tech front but stock rear and also the hood was completely dented to the engine block
that just sounds like a normal car lol a fake zhp would be something along the lines of my car lolQuote:

Wow what a car lol. No pics?
No because a person was getting out of it, I didnt want to seem weird , lol
Lol I hear ya
Very nice Imola sedan in the Target parking lot in Manhattan Beach, unfortunately not Waldo parked. IN A TARGET PARKING LOT! Clearly they don't know what they have. Unfortunately there are too many of those out here. Either they don't know what they have or they do and it's just no biggie - they aren't enthusiasts. True that BMWs are a dime a dozen out here, but still...
Waldo parked?
dirty blue vert I-95S in VA, MM144 Tue about 4:45pm.
Parking away from other cars... so far that it's "Where's Waldo" to find your car in a pic. OR, just a good space with plenty of room.Quote:

A Target parking lot is a dangerous place. Kids, moms, mini vans, shopping carts.... too much deadly ding potential. You cannot NOT Waldo park in one, you're just asking for dings.
Saw a silver ZHP sedan on Yankee Hill today. Flashed lights...no response... :(

I live in the Bay Area and only seen 3 ZHPs since I got mine in October. Pretty rare to me.
Yeah I've only seen 2 ZHPs since November
That's just how we do... Since seeing them is somewhat rare.Quote:

Hieu is right in that they aren't really that uncommon around here. But as Dane said, that's just how we do Hieu! :)
PS Did I spell that right or do I have it backwards?
Came across this. Made me wonder if anybody's done this while not driving their ZHP?

sorry i'm just soooo bored, not having a car sucks so much. i can't go anywhere lol
We leave it up to the judgement of the see-er.

There's not that many cars with Mtech 2 on front and rear AND style 135s.
Sometimes I can see the cube trim pieces.
And then of course there's the one and only Imola Red :)
Yup, 135s, Mtech II, rear diffuser are the first tells for me. As Hieu was referring to, (you may recall this story), the body shop replaced my ZHP side skirt with a standard one on accident, and no one noticed for 18 months until Hieu did. The shop replaced it with the correct one for free.
Uh. The zhp one is different than zsp?
The orient coupe is back! Sitting on the side of the road this time; the owner nowhere to be seen!

yeah i know. just wondering what you guys are using as your requirements lol like for me. i only go for modded zhps. i just totally disregard stock ones because they are most likely not enthusiasts lolQuote:

Finally found the owner of a beautiful Alpine White ZHP sedan at...Chipotle. He did not know it was a ZHP but I told him about the mafia so hopefully he joins!

+1. Saw an AW a while back. Also driven by a lady with her mother. They probably do not know what they got....just another vehicle for transport for going from point A to point B for them.
Not quite a ZHP, but it follows the "old lady" format we have going.
Some old lady in my city has an M 635 csi as her daily driver. I used to see her every few months doing her shopping downtown.
Don't know how many of those were made, but there can't be many!
