New member from Minnesota

[KTS317]

Hey everyone, glad to be part of the group! I bought my first ZHP a few weeks ago from a member here. It is an '05 Orient Blue 6MT. I'm in love with it so far. Im coming from an '07 335i but have owned 5-6 E46s in the past.

The car is pretty much exactly where I want it aside from the interior. The only plans I have for it are swapping the interior (I would love natural brown or taninrot but I don't think I'll be able to find either), adding an LSD and maybe a supercharger in a few years.[emoji4]

Here are a few pictures of the ZHP and a few of my past cars. The steel gray/taninrot was my first 330 and got me hooked. I should've never sold it. The E46 with green wheels was bought for $500 to compete in the "Clunker Cruise" and donated when the day was done.

The other ZHP is a guy that rents the upstairs of my house and is kind of a douche [emoji12] @jconlin16

Welcome! I really liked the ZHP you have now, seriously gorgeous. Also, +1 for Orient Blue. Good luck in your search for a NB interior, they're very tough to come by. I quite like the Light Beige interior though.

I was doing my best to try and talk a friend of mine into buying it, but he couldn't decide if we wanted to pursue it or not. His loss :)

Welcome! Glad you decided to join...

Thanks BMWCurves! I really like what you have done with yours. ARC8s look so good on these.

I'm glad it all worked out. I had my 335i for sale for almost 9 months. I bought this and had both for about a week before it finally sold.

Nice pictures...thanks for posting. The Clunker Cruise looks pretty interesting. How did it go?

Welcome to the mafia.
Hope you find that interior.

It went well! We found the car not running about an hour away. Squirrels had eaten through the fuel pump wiring. We spliced them together and drove an hour home! We made it through 4/5 of the challenges until (we think) the water pump shaft broke. It started to overheat even though it had plenty of coolant and the electric fan was on high. The expansion tank burst while driving down the highway after 10-15 minutes in the red.

Lol. 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." - anonymous E46 fanatic

Well, I found natural brown sedan interior but the drivers side door card is busted... That can't be an easy find
