http://www.stevenscreekbmw.com/bmwce...oryId=20526009

Was hoping to talk them down since it isn't much more for a 335i. Think I can get it down to $33,000?

possibly, you know they gave the person trading in the car dirt for it.
its a beautifull car, my buddy has one apparently the new 328i coupe has a similar motor, why not get into a 328coupe for 34k (base) ?

if you can get it in the low low 30's then i say good deal, sh*t its only got 13k on it damm baby

Exactly. I'm hoping they'll be anxious to get rid of it.

that thing is nice with the zhp package and all, but my friend picked up a used 2003 328ci for like 18k. i'd rather get a base e90 328 sedan/coupe with nothing in it.

The performance package (ZHP) does add to the price, but at $39k, that is too much dough.

No such thing as a 2003 328ci.

Just some info on ZHP, which is the order code for the performance package and included:

Sport suspension
Double Spoke (Styling 135M) cast alloy wheels, 18 x 8.0 front, 18 x 8.5 rear;,225/40R-18 front, 255/35R-18 rear performance tires
M Aerodynamic package
Matte stainless steel, 35mm dual exhaust pipes
High-gloss shadowline trim
8-way power front sport seats with 2-way manual headrests and thigh support; 3-driver memory for exterior mirror and seat positions; automatic tilt-down of passenger’s side-view mirror when vehicle is shifted into reverse gear
Alcantara/cloth upholstery
Anthracite interior headliner
M 3-spoke Alcantara-wrapped multi-function sport steering wheel with fingertip cruise, audio and accessory phone controls
Aluminum “black cube” interior trim
Tachometer with 300 rpm-higher redline and red needle
Short, sport gearshift lever
3.07 gears in rear differential
.5 degrees camber all around
No 128mph governor (155mph top speed).

It was available in 1 or 2 previously M only colors, Imola red was the one I remember.

The ZHP package was available on mid-2003 330i sedans, all 2004-2005 330i sedans, and mid 2004-2005 330Ci coupes & convertibles.


Good for 0-60 in about 5.6 seconds.

The wholesale value of the car is about $26k. I wouldn't pay much over $30k retail for that.
