Check out this gem...

I valeted this car a couple weeks ago. Late 2003 build 4-door 330i. Imola red with black interior. Had ZHP wheels (so I'm guessing it was a ZHP). Lady in her 60's driving it.

Absolutely spotless. Only issue was the lack of a third peddle.

holy ****. I wonder if she's ever had an oil change haha.

Whose car was that? Friend? Relative? Low mileage for sure.

I work a couple valet shifts on the weekend and she parked with us. If I didn't have the M, I would have asked her if she'd consider selling it. And I'd be starting another auto>>>manual swap thread.

Probably one of the lowest mileage ZHP's around! I want.

adaseb · 11-15-2012, 01:26 PM

With that low mileage how
Much would it sell for ?

cposk · 11-15-2012, 01:31 PM

Mid to high teens is my guess. It is still old.

Wouldn't the ZHP have red needles?

True! Hard to tell since their illuminated...

ZHP redline is 6800. This is not a ZHP cluster.

Also true. Extremely low mileage E46 nonetheless

330 Coupe have aluminum trim around the gauges. Don't know about sedans but I don't see any.

Pic really doesn't do justice. ZHP has silver dash rings btw

Sorry, I only had a second to get a picture, couldn't do a whole photo shoot. I wish I would have taken a picture of the ID plate. All I know is it had ZHP wheels, which is why I thought it was probably a ZHP. I doubt this lady swapped them out herself.

I just thought I'd share, you don't come across many 9 year old cars with that low of mileage.

So you drive a 2008 E90 M3 but you valet 10 year old BMWs for a living ?

Yeah...

But I normally drive my E46 while the M sits in the garage. (well that's recently now that my auto >>> manual swap, subframe reinforcement, H&R cup kit, suspension refresh is complete SEE HERE)

WDE46 · 11-16-2012, 04:28 PM

Can I ask where you valet that pays well enough to own two BMWs?

Dude valets make bank.

Hell, the guy that works the register at my neighborhood convenience store has a brand new F30 335i sport.

It's not how much you make, it's how much you care about your ride.

I make 6 figures and drive a 1999 323i and am currently working on getting my significant other to let me buy a $70 pair of new headlight lenses.

Wife: Lenses or.. the other thing. Take your pick.

Each one of these factors was a choice you made. And presumably you are happy with each one. Or at least telling yourself you are.
