Hello everyone, how is everybody doing?
It's been a while since I posted on this site due to personal and career reasons. Now that things are back to normal, I can start sharing my ZHP thoughts once again.
On some of my last posts, I was looking to replace my ZHP coupe with a 6 spd sedan. Well, last August, I picked an '05 Silver/Gray with Alcantara interior, leather wrapped steering wheel, SOS, Blue tooth, and heated seats. The car was in really good condition except with some bent wheels that I got fixed prior of getting new 255/35-18 tires on all 4 corners.
Since my wife already had a S/G ZHP, having two cars looking the same called for some modifications.
First on the list was a BMW performance aluminum STB that I kept from my old ZHP. Then, I bought a BMW Performance CAI. After that, I took my car to NYC to get my windows tinted with Huper Optik ceramic film. I had this tint on my other ZHP and it was amazing to see how much heat and UV rays this film really blocks.
Next, when my birthday came along, my wife got me a set of clear euro lights from Turner Motors. This mod really made the car look cleaner, and best of all, we could tell our cars apart. Lol
Next on the agenda, I got the roof wrapped in black vinyl, once again to make it look a little different than her car.
Since the front spoiler had its share of scratches from the previous owner, I had the front bumper painted. While it was in the shop, I had the all the molding and rear valance color matched to the body color.
Now the car looks like I wanted it to look but I still have a few more mods under my sleeve. Coming soon….. a BMW Performance exhaust .
I’m glad to be back and I'm sorry I missed the 2012 Sig.
Regards,
WIl.
Hello everyone,
I'm new to the site but not to BMW, specially ZHP cars. I owned my 2006 ZHP coupe for 2 years before I had to sell it due to financial reasons.
I am located in central NJ and I consider myself a BMW gear head. I have owned 5 different 3 series BMWs, and the ZHP was the best BMW, and best car I have ever owned.
I'm currently driving an E30, but now that I have some cash to spare, I looking for my next BMW. I don't want an M3, everyone has one of those, and who wants to pay for premium insurance. I want a ZHP, but this time a sedan. The ZHP, in my opinion, is the best e46 BMW has ever built.
Cheers,
PS: I forgot to mention that there is a ZHP in the family; my wife's car, she has an '05 330i ZHP Auto, so I do get to drive a ZHP once in a while :)l
