Greetings,

Glad to be a new member of this great forum. I've been lurking and researching for a while. Im currently looking to get back into a ZHP after a long hiatus. Back in 2007 I bought what I thought was my dream car (it was) a 2004 Imola/Alcantara 6MT ZHP in NoVa. I dearly loved that car and it made my Pentagon commute bearable. Unfortunately, I also thought I needed a boat, but after getting my wife's Honda Odyssey stuck in the sand at a crappy boat ramp, the ZHP almost immediately turned into a pickup truck to tow the boat.

Since then I've been through numerous vehicles including several Mazda Miatas (although this rarely works out with 3 kids) but nothing has ever completely replaced the ZHP in my heart so I'm currently in the market for another one. I think I'll probably go convertible this time to scratch all the itches (convertible, family car, high performance). Looking forward to getting to know you guys as this seems like a great place to be.

Chris

Welcome Chris! This is indeed a great community. I'm at just about exactly 3 years into my ZHP adventure, and Mafia membership. Invaluable source of info and support, great bunch of people. Good luck with your search.

Welcome, Chris. I bought a ZHP sedan 2 months ago. I considered a vert, but the sedan won. GL with search.

Hey, I make that trip from Stafford to the Pentagon almost every day... ugh. Lot of cars posted here. Happy Hunting. (BTW, my neighbor is a Navy pilot and is headed your way in a few months.)

Yep, that's my old commute and your car is pretty much a twin of my old one. I wonder if my old car is actually on this forum somewhere. I sold it to CARMAX down around Frederiksburg back in 07/08.

I actually think I bought mine around Fredricksburg. What was the mileage when you dished it to Carmax?

Not positive but I would guess low 30s

Nope. Not mine. We can check to see if it's registered in our other thread though.
