Great combo. Good luck!

Beautiful car! While I love my Mystic and Alcantara, the Mystic and NB looks awesome. GLWS

Great looking example. I suggest going into the garage, grabbing a chair and just sit and examine the car. Give it some time and you might change your mind on selling it.

After 10 years it's hard to let it go

Sounds like a nice car. Anyone else not able to see the photos?

[BADCLOWN]

photos worked fine for me, very clean car for the mileage.

lived in/went to school in Louisville for 7 years, where abouts are you located?

After 10 years of ownership, I have decided to sell my ZHP to make room for something different. Originally I was going to make it a garage queen and had started ordering cosmetic parts for that, but have since decided that I don't have the space or money for a garage queen car. I'll probably regret it, but that's where I'm at right now. The car is located in Louisville, KY and has been garaged and well cared for its entire 15 year history (I still talk to the previous owner and he is an avid BMW fan/owner). I follow this forum closely and have done the vast majority of preventative maintenance on this car as prescribed. The only item I skipped that bit me was the fuel pump and that was done in 2017 when it went out on me. It's had a full suspension refresh (minus springs), cooling system, VANOS, VGC, plugs, DISA upgrade, CCV, and more. The FULL 15 year maintenance history and comments can be found here (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RWBz4J0bf0vpObzYjv4WZaqFxmSrSGJmMxbBFVWvOjg/edit?usp=sharing).

It has 160K miles, but is problem free and I have no doubt it would go another 160K. I'm not saying it's perfect and I have more info on issue in the spreadsheet, but issues are mostly cosmetic and standard wear issues on a 15 year old car. I'm looking to get $10,000 and am happy to help if you want to arrange transportation. A 100+ picture album with three videos (cold start, driving, and low speed driving) can be found here (https://photos.app.goo.gl/E4jzJyzbgnZpYzRm6). I'll be posting in other enthusiast-based BMW forums as well. Thanks!

Sheeeesh, she’s a beaut! GLWS

My ideal color combo!

If I were in the hunt for a ZHP right now, I'd be all over this.

Sorry for the bad post the first time. I added a couple of pictures and made the links clearer.

I'm over near Brownsboro road somewhat close to River Road. Great places to drive cars / motorcycles.

Yeah, I've been going back and forth for a few weeks on selling. The car is so second-nature to me now that it would be a perfect weekend racer, but I don't think I could stand to do that to the car. haha. I'm thinking about going the opposite direction with a big luxury cruiser, but we'll see.

Just can't let it go even though sometimes I wouldn't mind someone else enjoyed the zhp experience.

But everyone that sells ends up buying another one. Save yourself the trouble and keep it. Past it on to your kids someday.

Beautiful ZHP!

[BMWCurves]

Yeah, I second everyone that says keep it if you're really hesitating. I swear 10-20% of "wanting to buy" ZHP ads here and on E46Fanatics are of previous ZHP owners.

I've driven cars that have more conveniences than our cars, or more power, but the overall balance of daily drivability, power, handling, and relative ease of maintenance make it a sum greater than its parts. I never plan to part with mine.

looks like this is Pending sale in FB already

Pretty scenic down that way, I agree on the weekend drive roads for sure. Lots of those all around the outskirts near Gene Snyder/Anchorage/La Grange

Awesome car! GLWS :thumbsup

[pedro2u]

i like the spreadsheet format of your history, especially since it includes the previous owner history. I didn't have the luxury of the previous owners 77k mile history for mine besides CarFax, but since 2017, my spreadsheet is very similar. I'm guessing many of us have a similar file

I actually also have a sheet that includes my purchase price plus every penny I've spent on parts and maintenance. It show what I'm into this car for, a foolish approach for sure. But it grounds me, and confirms that I've fully contracted the ZHP disease.....

[Dubaudi2400]

Still available?

[cakM3]

If this car is still for sale, I will be surprised.... beautiful car for sure!!!
