AMA MOTORSBMW 330CI ZHP CONVERTIBLE Very Special and rare ZHP convertible 330CI. This vehicle is an enthusiast owned vehicle, meticulously maintained and garaged since new. Inside you will find natural brown leather, silver cube trim, power windows, power locks, heated seats, power convertible top (fully automated), front and side airbags, roll over bar, Climate control, etc. Engine is BMW’s famous inline 6 design mated to a smooth yet precise manual 6 speed gearbox. Outside you will find 18″ ZHP wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.About ZHP PERFORMANCE PACKAGE:The performance package was an inclusive option given to E46 sedans from 2003 to 2005, coupes and convertibles from 2004 to 2006.] It included various aesthetic changes over the regular 3 series, as well as functional and mechanical enhancements. It had M badges on each of its Style 135 wheels, with additional M badging on the multi-function steering wheel and atop the 6-speed short throw weighted shifter. In addition to the standard color options, the ZHP was available in the “Motorsport-only” color Imola Red. It received the “M-Tech II” bodykit standard, 18-inch staggered Style 135 wheels, high gloss anthracite window trim, and the coupe received clear turn signals (headlights, side-markers, and tail-lights) instead of the amber turn signals found on the standard 330Ci. The interior had also been modified with half cloth-half alcantara sports seats (optional upgrade to leather), an alcantara-wrapped sports steering wheel (switched to perforated leather in mid-2005), a shorter M-badged shift knob, anthracite colored cloth headliner, and aluminum “cubed” faux-carbon fiber interior trim (available in silver or black). The instrument gauge cluster was also modified with red needles and polished metal trim rings.In the performance department, the ZHP was equipped with the more aggressive DME tune to increase power from 225 hp (168 kW) to 235 hp (175 kW). The engine redline raised from 6,500 rpm to 6,800 rpm to take advantage of the new power band and higher power output at higher RPMs. As a result of the higher redline, the nut that fastens the oil pump’s sprocket came with threadlocker pre-applied from the factory to keep the nut from falling off. The car also received a shorter final drive ratio which allows for faster acceleration; 3.07 vs. 2.93 for manuals and 3.64 vs. 3.38 for the automatic. Car and Driver magazine track-tested the car, which returned a 0-60 mph time of 5.6 seconds and passed through the 1/4 mile in 14.3 seconds. In 2003 the ZHP featured a 6-speed manual transmission (the Steptronic automatic transmission was not available the first model year (2003), but it was offered from 2004 to 2006).Suspension was modified over the standard suspension with firmer springs and dampers, larger anti-roll bars, stronger front control arm ball joints, a lower ride height, and slightly more negative camber. The Style 135M wheels also came equipped with the much stickier compound, Michelin Pilot Sport tires, in a staggered configuration with 225/40-18 tires in the front and 255/35-18 tires in the back.Somethings minor damages I would like to point out: Steering wheel can use some TLC (alcantara material), driver bolster has minor wear (no tears or rips), tiny chips front facia, nothing major. As I said in the video, the car shows exceptionally well for a 11 year old vehicle. I am very OCD and I would be more than happy with it.Don't buy from dealers that have no idea what car they are selling. Not only am I an enthusiast but I drive, inspect and ensure each vehicle we sell is worthy to carry our stamp of approval!
