Hi ladies and gents and thanks for letting me join the site. I just finished registration last night and I'm glad to see I got in before the site closed registration!

My name is Raul and I'm originally from Socal - I see a lot of other fellow San Diegans here - though I'm currently living in St. Louis after spending the last 6 years in Washington DC.

I recently started the process of looking for a used BMW. I'm a long time fan of cars, racing and especially German auto's. I had the chance to drive a friends 330i coupe and knew that I needed to get my own. I was originally intending to get a gently used 335i coupe and I'd still love too. But recent developments (kid on the way) make that suddenly less attractive. My wife and I are also shopping for a replacement to her '07 Cooper S.

A member at Bimmerforums referred me to ZHPmafia and here I am! I've spent the last 48 hours drooling over the pics of the various rides here!

I've been poring over some of the threads and thanks for all the great information. Hopefully with a little help from some of you all I can make an informed decision.

Cheers and see you in the forums!
-Raul

Thanks for the warm welcome, I'm definitely glad to be here!

I'm getting the Mini cleaned up this Friday and plan on shooting some photos for the forthcoming sale. I'll post some of them here after I'm done.

Still on the hunt for the ZHP. I've got two possible leads but both are significantly far from St. Louis. It's making things a bit more difficult. Would love to find someone selling a 6MT coupe not in Imola Red near STL! :fingerscrossed
