Hello everyone,
I'm new to the forum. I don't own a ZHP yet but I'm hoping to get one this year.
My old car started giving problems and I started looking online for a potential replacement.
I came across a guy on youtube reviewing a 2006 330ci ZHP and since then getting a ZHP made the top of my list.
During my online research I came across this forum, and it's nice to know that there's a community that have a passion for this particular car model.
I'm hoping to get my own ZHP soon and form part of the ZHP mafia.

Thanks everyone.
Hey John, currently my search is from San Francisco to San Diego.
There's a ZHP for sale near San Francisco, I'll contact the seller tomorrow and see how it goes.

Little update.
Finally got my ZHP 'Adelita'.
2004 330i AT, Alcantara, Alpine White.
Bought it on 6/18/14 from a small dealer close to were I live.
I got the title and registration this last Saturday so I can finally say that she's all mine for sure.
The car seems to be in a pretty good condition.
It has some cosmetic issues that I need fix but performance wise seems to be pretty good.
I took it to an independent German car repair shop, they replaced a ripped intake boot, installed the missing ambient sensor and told me that it has a minor oil pan leak.
The front bumper was loose due to cracked side plastic anchors or whatever they are called I used some Plastic Weld to fix the cracks and so far is holding pretty good, no more saggy bumper.
It's missing the fog lights, so they are on my wishlist.
It came with Style 138s, and the issue that I'm having right now is that the back tires hit on the body when I carry people on the back.
I don't know if it's due to the wheels, springs or shocks.
I installed the BMW AUX cable and got a ground loop adapter since the radio was constantly loosing AUX connection when I had my iPhone connected to AUX and to the USB charger.
I was only given one FOB Key which didn't work remotely. I took it to Scott from bmwgm5.com and he was able to fix it under 20mins.
Here's a pic of Adelita in the lot when I went to see her and get her. I'll upload more pics once I get her all fixed cosmetically.
