We're moving soon and sadly I need to cut down on some of our cars. The ZHP didn't make the cut, but she will be greatly missed. I bought this car about 3 years ago. Below you'll find a list of the mods and repairs i've done since owing the car. She's been incredibly reliable and a fantastic car to drive. I put about 30k miles on the car since purchasing it, most of which has been highway use. I have the Carfax report from when I purchased the vehicle, but you're more than welcome to run it again yourself. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.

I also scheduled to have a noisy pulley replaced.

06/07/16 Update: I've lowered the price of the car. However, I will likely swap back the stock intake and uninstall the Sprint Booster. So if those items interest you, please let me know so we can figure something out.

When I read that your message, I thought you said NW PA as in Erie PA. I thought well damn, thats only a 5 hour drive. Then I noticed you were in Oregon, lol.

Yeah, thats a bit of a drive.

Priced way too high for Harrisburg - I'd say 'bout $5k. I'll be by to pick it up tonight... ;-)

All you can do is wait. These cars command a premium but only after you find someone that knows to look for one. Regular 330i buyer is not likely interested in paying for the ZHP package me thinks.

Nooo!

"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." - anonymous

Haha, you drive a hard bargain. How could I say no!

Yeah, I posted something on my Facebook and a crap ton of my friends have shared it. So I've been getting some hits on it. Someone came to check it out today, and I have another guy coming tomorrow. Should be sold soon I think.

I cleaned the AC condenser with einszett Klima-Cleaner, I got to it by pulling the firewall panels and opening up the blower motor lid.
I also installed a new cabin filter today. No more stinky air when you first turn on the AC, yay. I'll need to do this to my E90 next, worked wonderfully.
While working on the AC/Blower stuff today, I noticed a slight chirp/ticking sound from a pulley bearing today, I've scheduled to have that replaced this week.

The car is al.so scheduled to be fully detailed this up coming Sunday. It's going to look super pretty for it's new owner! Which is still yet to be determined! ;)

I've lowered the price and I will likely be removing the Performance Intake and Sprint Booster.

Negative Curves, I definitely want a 6MT, but for a good price you never know... The only thing I can find in our area are AT's, which is my current issue. I found a nice one in the bay area, but it went fast.

Gotcha. But you're actively looking for a ZHP or just sort of idly browsing unless a good deal comes along?

Is there a difference? :) I'm not in a hurry, but want to get back into a ZHP. I peruse PDX-SEA craigslist and here pretty often for ZHP's that match my criteria. If I find one I like I'll probably try to get it

Cool, I'll keep an eye out. Coupe? Sedan? I guess PM me your preferences, I'm definitely down to help.

Price lowered to $7000. Open to offers as well.

I'm moving in less than two weeks, and due to space issue I would love to sell the car before the move.

Update:
The car was pending sale to someone for the past week. However, that has since changed...

The potential buyer and I came to an agreement that I would attempt to resolve a rear tire rubbing issue (on my dime). I thought the rear shocks were a bit soft/blown, so I went ahead and installed new Bilstein rear shocks. I was hopping it would stiffen up the rear and prevent it from sagging during bumps and prevent the tire rub. However, I was wrong. The new shocks did nothing compared to the old ones.

So I got a hold of a friend with a fender roller and resolved the issue with a very light fender roll. The fender's lip still looks OEM actually, it just needed a tiny bit to clear. I wish I would have done this years ago, lol. I'm sure one size smaller tire would have also resolved the issue. The previous tires I had on the car rubbed much less than the newer ones.

Anyway, I notify the buyers that the car was ready to go. To my surprise they went MIA over the weekend, but I figured since it was a holiday they could have been busy. I messaged them today asking if they were still interested. To my disappointment, I find out that they're no longer able to purchase the car. They went on a camping trip over the weekend, and when they arrived home yesterday evening they found their roof had collapse due to heavy rain and winds.

So the car is back up on the market! She's looking better than ever, and pretty much has zero issues.
The new center caps and M badges should be here soon, which will freshen up the wheels quite a bit.

Feels see to message me if you're interested in negotiating.
