Picking up the new to me BMW 330 ZHP on Thursday

[Go Horns!]

Flying out to Phoenix on Wednesday night and picking it up when the dealer opens in the morning. Then I'm driving it back to Texas. Planning on driving the Coronado Trail on the way back. I figure over 400 turns and 6,000 feet of elevation change in 94 miles is worth adding a few extra hours to the trip.

Sounds like it'll be a great ride home.

Congrats!

Congratulations! That looks like a very fun road to drive on. Any pics of the car?

[Go Horns!]

Only pics I had were from the dealer's web page and they have taken the car off the web. It is Imola on black leather. It is a 2004 with 16,500 miles; will be 17,500 by Sunday.

Wow! Sounds like a great car especially with such low miles! Is it a stick or an automatic? And coupe or sedan? Looking forward to pictures once you get it home.

Congrats! Nice low miles!

I've always wanted to drive or ride 191, that should be a blast. Even Hwy 60 through Superior and Globe is a great drive, I've been on that stretch a couple times. Have fun.

I had a long drive from Memphis to Baton Rouge and it was something I will never forget. Your trip will be even cooler cause you will be driving on awesome roads instead of interstate like I did.

Congrats!

They both beat my first drive home from the dealer-- Highways followed by 1 1/2 hours of central Philly bumper to bumper traffic. On the plus side, I had the feel for the clutch before I was even back in Jersey...

We were lucky to drive home from Denver. Mountains to desert to ocean. Loved it. Great experience with the wife.
