I just picked up my 2006 330Ci ZHP on 20 December 2015 in Lexington, KY. The car is Jet Black, with Automatic Transmission, CWP, and Xenon Headlights. Current mileage is 10,100. It is about as close to new as a 10-year old car gets.

I learned that the seller purchased the car in February 2014 from EAG. It had 6,103 miles at that time. As I understand the history, it was originally part of the collection of an extremely wealthy 72- y/o gentleman who passed. All his vehicles were sold at the same time to a dealer from whom EAG acquired it.

I really do like this car and although I would have preferred a 6-speed, I am learning to live with the steptronic without complaints. I am impressed by the classic BMW balance of performance and handling. The return trip to North East Georgia was quite entertaining!

Looking forward to learning more from the members of this site.

Cheers,
John

Welcome, I used to live in Augusta and Columbus. Sounds like a great car. Perhaps add paddle shifters?

I would love to see some pics! One of my favorite things about the ZHP is the steering!

Congrats ! Wow, I needed to read the miles 2 or 3 times to make sure my eyes were not playing tricks with me.

I had to do a double-take when I saw the mileage also...but you can see from the pictures it is a low mileage example. Welcome!

"ZHP is a garbage option anyway- just some cosmetic upgrades with a different cam and diff to claw back some of the performance lost fitting those hideous and heavy wheels. Any 330 with a 3.46 diff will smoke a ZHP every time. The whole Mafia thing reeks of childish behavior." - an e46fanatic
