[TxCracker2316]

I'm selling my 2006 BMW 330ci zhp. very clean, no mechanical issues. I'm the 3rd owner and I've babied and maintained the car ahead of schedules and with only OEM parts.

-They are only about a year old with discount tire certificates
-When I bought the car it didn't have the 135's it had 137's.

-Ultragauge EM Plus, every e46 should have one of these.
I've got a Sprint Booster that's not included but we can work something out if you want it, every electric throttle should have one of These, lol.

The bad
-There's some small scuffs and scratches on driver side quarter panel that happened at the grocery store.
-Small ding on drivers door
-Small ding on the top of drivers b pillar
-There's some spots where the headliner sags which is easy fix, but it's never bothered me enough to do it.
-There's minor wear on the drivers seat and the center console
-The floor mats aren't oem
-Some of the rubberized window trim (not seal) is starting to peel

I've got plenty of pictures if you need more.

Asking $12,500 obo there's still a lien on it, so money can switch hands at the credit union and they will mail you the title. No big deal, clean title.

What's going on? Is nobody into coupes?

What's going on? Is nobody into coupes?

if you're looking for some advice, here's some. :)

1. your ad is very hard to read. spend 15 minutes and make it clearer, cleaner, and easier to read.
2. your pictures are not great. no underhood shots, also. take better pics, and a lot of them. and also highlight the blemishes.
3. the car is dirty, and full of your personal effects. clean it; if you can't, pay a professional to detail it. it will pay for itself.
4. it's a steptronic. no offense, but they just don't sell as easily as a manual.
5. no stock wheels (your APEX wheels are very nice, albeit perhaps too aggressive a fitment for these cars). they may be heavy but they look good, and fit well. and some folks like stock.
6. ill-fitting floor mats are an easy fix; get some used OEM mats.
7. the leather could use cleaning and conditioning; the driver's seat in particular, it appears to have water spots or something in the picture above.

if you fix these items (obviously items #4 does not qualify here), your asking price will be more appealing.

hope that helps! :cheers

Good points above.

Also, it's not spoken of a lot, but I believe that a ZHP coupe is less desirable to people than a ZHP sedan. BMW never made an E46 M3 sedan, so the ZHP package was seen as a way to placate those who wanted a more powerful E46 sedan. A ZHP coupe (which I have as well) can be seen as superfluous given that the M3 has the same body style with more power, while maintaining the same disadvantage from a utility standpoint when compared to the sedan.

At any rate, quick and simple fixes are clean up the interior, take some more photos with less glare and more clarity, have some photos of the blemishes you outline in your description, and make your ad easier to read. Good luck!

Thanks for the advice, it's appreciated. I was wondering when I posted it if it was too much written. I actually clean the leather with chem bros and condition with leather honey twice a year, but I guess it's due. I think a full detail would be best with my current schedule. I agree with the auto thing, I'm a stick shift guy. It does get the job done in "manual" but it's still missing a pedal.
I'm partial on the coupe thing obviously, she's beautiful, but I get it the sedans are more practical for most. I'll clean the ad up this evening, if there's anything else you guys see, please let me know I obviously need the help! ����

Hope it helps!

Also, I think it being winter might be a lull in the buyer's side of the market. I know you're down in Texas, but for buyers out of state, especially in the NE, it's cold and snowy. A coupe is more of a weekend car rather than a daily for some people, so they will probably wait for the weather to warm up.

Just something you might want to keep in mind. Not an issue down in Texas or the warmer states.

Cleaned up the text, getting the car detailed now, I'll get all new pics tonight or tomorrow. Thanks again, any more tips is appreciated. I hope I'm not breaking rules by saying this but I have no problem paying a referral if someone knows someone looking.
