The guage cluster looks a little different (no red needles) but it'll rev out to 6800 instead of 6500 as indicated.
That car is overpriced though. ZAM doesn't double the value of a clean 330 in my mind - especially without the more desirable (to me) cloth seats.

ZHP/ZAM are really desirable cars. Brings some e36 m3 feel to an e46 which comes with better safety/newer technology. People say that e46s are better built as well, but thats not totally my experience. I've broken more interior trim and shit in the wagon than the e36.
I think if you get a well maintained example, they can be some of the best and most rewarding cars you can own for the price. If you get one thats neglected, it's so hard to recover from as it just snowballs on these cars. Can totally be one of the worst cars for the price at that point.

Looks relatively well maintainted too. | I wouldn't pay 12-13K for it. I loved my 330CI. I bought it for $7500 about 3 years ago (?), with 196K KM iirc. At 175K, its pretty much the same maintenance schedule. The 330CI does not have major maint. sched that really needs to be done at 200K. The only difference between mine and this one, is this one is facelifted (diff headlights) and that this is a 6SPD vs a 5SPD. You could really buy a non-Msport 330CI and just make sure it has the .712 yellow tag rack.
Upgraded suspension doesn't mean jack all if it's still stock. Stock sport suspension is the same. There's no actual diff between a non m-sport E46 and a m-sport e46 suspension. Bilstein B4 also isn't an upgrade. That's just refresh to stock. MSport control arms are different. But at this mileage, it'll need to be refreshed anyway. Use MeyleHD.
If you are planning to buy it, check what he means by full cooling system. Again check if DISA valve and VANOS have been rebuilt. Check if Rear Trailing Arm Bushings, Subframe mounts, and Diff mounts have been refreshed. These are the expensive ones to do. Check if strut towers are mushroomed. Check if rear subframe is cracked.
Between 190K and 260K km this is what I had to do. Granted a lot of things I did was because "while I'm in there". A lot of these things are preventative.
I've done, rear trailing arm bushing, front control arm + FCABs (MeyleHD), engine/trans mounts, shock/struts (bilstein B8+), rear strut reinforcement, front strut reinforcement, chassis mounted shifter, shifter bushings, power steering lines, cooling lines, radiator, expansion tank, valve cover gasket, DISA valve, VANOS rebuild, axleback, brake pads, rotors, oil sensor, pcv/ccv pipes, vanos line, camshaft position sensor, belts and pulleys, and I think that's as far as I can remember LOL Quote:

^^ good to know what a decent price range would be for these 330ci's. Still in the 'would be nice to have one on a summer weekend to do the Duffy Lake Loop' but not really close to actually buying one.

Not at all saying he’ll get that or that’s what it’s worth but just can see the logic for someone trying to gauge a price based on Disneyland prices.
