I remember seeing one a few years back. I was trying to contact the dealer and next thing I new it was sold. Someone walked in with cash in hand.

Why's this one so cheap?

I want it soo bad. Will upload pictures that the seller provided me.

Quick somebody buy my wife's zhp

[Johnmadd]

I honestly don't like the color... but it is rare zhp wise.

This is the only color that I would prefer over my IR. I just picked up a similar colored Merc G500 and it's a spectacular color.

Very grainy and bad Images from the seller

Fixed.

Still would be a great catch for someone. I love the color combo.

There is a member here that has that exact color combo. The car was sold through EAG.

Yeah, a lighter shade of green would be preferred to my color blind eyes... :( I can't help but see dark brown...which...is NOT a color that belongs on a car. Maybe if we can get some better pictures I'll be able to see it better.

This member must not have posted pics of his/her car other than possibly the new members section (which I don't check often) because the only person that I knew of that had this color combo was Meric, who was banned from the forum. His also wasn't a ZHP, but an M-Sport instead (Canadian).

This combo is unbelievably rare. I have an Oxford Green / Natural Brown 325i for sale near me with high mileage. The car is pretty beat up, but mechanically sound, for $3600.
Would make a great daily if it didn't require another 2 grand of work to make it passable as a daily...

Interesting read through that thread...definitely need to jump on these things when they pop up. Still surprised they didn't jump on mine with the 58k...I guess it was a good thing mine was farther away from them, not that it plays a role, but got me enough time for a PPI/deposit.

Ironic, Shawn, how they apparently held the car for "lost_one" but you were shafted by them with the original dealer...

[Vas]

Any chance someone got the email address for the seller ? Curious if this car ever sold.

[fredo]

I like Oxford green. If I didn't have the ZHP already, I would be interested on this one:

Not bad for $3,900 !

[Vas]

I like Oxford green too. Wish there was more of them

[az3579]

Damn that would make the perfect daily / NY City car for me. Having driven in and around NYC all day today, I'm left having a coronary every time I even think about driving my ZHP in the city ever again.

I guess I'm the only one that thinks this green is disgusting? Does nothing for me.

Looking at the photos, notice that this ZHP doesn't have Xenons? I've not seen a ZHP with no Xenons. Weird.

Not a fan of the green either but I do see why some like green over cinnamon.
