I tried whip a fucking donut and this piece of shit just pushed the front end. Performance package... bull shit it doesn't even have a lsd! Its a one wheel drive piece of shit. Hmm well it handles good, wait it doesn't have an lsd and understeers like a bitch! Runs a fucking 10.2 at the eighth mile drag strip, how sac less. :blink Should have spent the extra money to get an M3.

Sounds to me that he's just mad the car doesn't do any of the things it wasn't designed for.
Perhaps driving it normally would yield better results?

You don't represent yourself too well. Seems you are looking for something else....better off to sell your car to a person who will appreciate it and move on to some other make where ppl talk like you... :facepalm I don't usually see fellow forum members talking like this on our forum... you might want to think about that as well....there's a decorum that you should adhere to when on this forum pal....good luck searching for whatever it is that you are looking for! :thumbsup

Understeer is a key sign that the driver sucks and can't control the car correctly.

Yeah, donuts aren't really something these cars are good at. Turning DSC completely off helps.. just stick to the straight line burnouts and not to doing donuts, which will inevitably get you laughed at for failure.

Nivo, you may share those feelings but I have never heard or seen you talk this way about your ZHP.....
Still haven't heard from OP considering he started such a bone-headed thread... of all places here where we all enjoy having "not-so-special" bimmers...
I for one, would like to give him a chance - let's say....a free pass as someone has already mentioned. I think everyone is entitled to a "stupid" moment even if it has been induced by amounts of alcohol....at least OP can roger up and make amends here and begin contributing...:thumbsup
Let's all give him a break and show him exactly how awesome our forum is! :thumbsup I think its safe to say he got the message from us...

i think we should just let it go. he prob got smoked by some M3s and got his panties in a wad, then drowned his sorrows in booze. it happens. we all know our car is not special.

nobody is perfect and people make mistakes... Obviously, OP made a huge mistake here and vented out his frustrations...was drunk and made some comments that may have truth to them regarding how he truely feels towards his ZHP....
I came from the opposite end being an ///M owner and find having my ZHP as my daily driver to be a perfect fit. I don't worry about others with faster cars....don't really care....I'm driving my ZHP and know how "not so special" this car really is. At the end of the day...I'm driving a car I fully appreciate and know that if I need power, I always have my ///M to take out and play...:thumbsup
Nivo, you may share those feelings but I have never heard or seen you talk this way about your ZHP.....
LOL I was being sarcastic to the OP. I love my car, just making it what I believe:fistpump my car should be.

The funny thing is, he's not wrong. It's just how he said it. In fact, our cars aren't super fast (but they are "fast enough" for some), they understeer (hello, staggered setup helps produce understeer - they are set up for that), and they don't have LSD. None of this is news. As said earlier, just a rant that was mistakenly placed in this forum.

This thread is awesome. The car has rear wheel drive = )~ You just wanted an lsd? In fact the best drift car of all time (s13 my opinion so probably not going very far with that statement ok personal choice) didnt come to the states with LSD. It was rear wheel drive as well.

It just amazes me that someone would sink what, for most of us, is a decent chunk of money into a car with totally unrealistic expectations. Apparently he bought a ZHP thinking it was a drift-modded Supra.
As many have pointed out before, the ZHP isn't the best car for any one thing in particular; however, it does a lot of things well. An all-rounder. It's pretty fast, it handles pretty well, it's pretty well priced, and gets pretty good fuel economy. It's not the fastest, nor does it handle the best, nor is it the cheapest or most expensive, nor does it get the best fuel economy. Strangely enough, this is part of why we love it so much.

I have to say that this is one of the best summaries of the ZHP I have read in awhile. Well done! :thumbsup Just remember "not so special" ZHP :biggrin

You have to manage your expectations when buying a car. Unfortunately, most peoples expectations are significantly higher than what their car can actually accomplish. If OP is still expecting his car to perform up to his expectations, at this stage, then he will never be happy with it and honestly should look towards what he really wants.
The ZHP is a mildly performance based car, it does exactly what BMW had(has?) intended it to do, right off the lot. The ZHP doesn't have a strong lineage as the M3 does. It sits in the middle of all the E46's and is the first of it's class within that line (first time there has been a performance increase of this type in the 3 series lineup). You could argue that (obvious power requirements withstanding) the ZHP is like the 335. It sits handsomely between the daily every person 328 and the M3.
