I sold my E36M3 to buy my Z. Guess I'm headed to the big house with the rest of you....

Rick, glad to have you on board with the rest of us crazies.
It is also my understanding that a ZHP forum isn't needed and won't work. :biggrin
Ya, i turned down an immaculate e36m3 at a similar price to get the zhp. Very comparable car, similar stats, just newer tech, larger, and I was getting tired of my e36 and didn't want to get reved at every stop light by hondas. That and this was a dakar yellow m3 detailed and maintainted like a baby.
Yeah, mine was cool too. One of the first 1995 arrivals into the US, I sold it to a close friend,with 42,000 on the clock, two years ago. It now sits at 47,xxx - no doubt one of the lowest mileage examples left standing. Super clean, Euro HMF, Motorsports strut brace, Superspint exhaust, Dinan chip, stainless lines, custom painted side view mirrors done by California legend Dennis Rickleffs, 3:38 diff, the list goes on. And you're right, very similar in performance but the ZHP is smoother. Ain't no way I would trade back!
