Help!
Looking at a 2005 330i ZHP, Black w/ Natual Brown leather
65K miles, Inspection II NOT done. no ext warranty
Car is in great overall condition. Lot oif curb rash on wheels though.
Down to $15K (private party)
Grab it? if yes, get ext warranty? ($1500)

Other option is:
06 E90 330i Black/Black
Sport, Premium, NAV, Heated seats
44K miles
$21K (dealer)

Thoughts??

Thanks!

I've owned both. Must say that the e90 is a little more refined. You obviously get newer technology, and more options based on the one you are looking at.

However, the ZHP, which I currently have, is truly a unique and rare car. I think if you hold onto long enough, and keep it clean and unmodded, will become a collector's car. It is a blast to drive. Handles like a dream. I think it is better looking, though to many, it appears dated due to things like the unpainted black trim around the car, and parts of the interior. But I like those aspects of it as it is classic BMW design.

Passed on the ZHP.
Might check in later in the week, see if hes going any lower in price, but otherwise will try for 06.

If anyone is interested in ZHP, Let me know.
