Hello all,
I have been an owner of my 2005 Mystic Blue w/ Grey/Black cube Interior 330CIc ZHP - ZCW for over 5 years now. I have not been social upon forums, but have been a browser on ZHPMafia.com for a long time now. Decided to join recently!
I was on the search for a ZHP convertible for about a year and a half. As I was on my way to class I was driving by and saw her. 2 Hours later she was all mine. Bought her with 31k, in Feb 2010 from a Honda Dealership. Got a great deal, and have done all the maintenance and mods myself. She is currently at 173k going strong!!!
Mods - Front ///M Stability Brace, PowerflexUSA bushings all around the vehicle front and back, Bilstein PSS10 coil over kit, Bav Auto Performance Camber kit front and back, Eibach Sway Bar Front and Back kit, 135 Style Staggered wheels (I used the rear with deeper offset from E60 550i, 135 Style wheel.) Wheels have been Painted Gloss Black. Sprint Booster.

Up until recently, that was all Florida Hwy miles. Currently, I have some maintenance issues to take care of. Hopefully after changing a couple of sensors my ZHP won't be as sluggish as she has been last few days.

First of many trips to the Florida Keys before I painted the wheels and did some light mods.

This was somewhere in Virginia after painting the wheels and some light mods.

Currently, I am up in Northern NJ on temporary assignment for work so here she is in our current home.

^rguti153,
Palm Beach county is a great place to buy a car but it can be a great find for a great deal, or it could be a horrific experience if you didn't do a proper ppi.
When I saw mine on a Honda lot, I automatically thought this is going to be a gift or a curse.
Because obviously it was a trade in and it looked like she was well driven but had a cigarette hole in the rear seat. So the previous owner just had it for vanity and probably traded her in for a Honda Pilot lol.
I took it with a grain of salt, and it ended up being a great find. After tearing into it, I realized she was a gem.
Older folks in Palm Beach county hold onto a lot of stuff including cars they only take out to the grocery store.
I am always on the hunt for a ZHP sedan but never pulled the trigger because the owners were either too old and negligent. Or the car used to be a lease owned car that was abused and beat to hell.

Yeah Ive seen only 3 M3's with that combo, but no ZHP's.
Maybe I'm the only one? :thumbup:thumbup:thumbup:thumbup

That would be awesome, but I've since relocated to Northern NJ. I'm here on 'temporary assignment' with my company. I don't know how temporary it is but for the coming year will be up here.
I would love to meet when I migrate down south again.
