It's not a mystery. It's Koren.

This has been for sale since last fall. It has a huge claim on it 12-14k IIRC. He wouldn’t budge on his price and said he would rather save it for his son lol.

The N cars with 2.0T is solid - occasional fuel pump issue but defs more reliable than any N series BMW or Mini.
Might be the only reliable enigne.

Avoid basically every other Hyundai engine, even the N/A V6.s
The 1.6T Hyundais in Veloster Turbo are a much older design with known issues: turbo, bearings, oil dilution, VVT.
Not track-rated, allowed to have shit quality because it only sold in low volume.

Fuckkkk, I drove one of these back in 2020.

So, fucking, fun. Thing corners like its on rails. The exhaust in N mode is insanely poppy, VI magnet in the wrong part of town.

Can possibly talk him down since he has to leave the country soon

Been a minute since I had to sell a sub $10k car but the demand is still there. Helped my MIL sell her 1 owner 20yo Camry with claims free history for what I would have considered on the top end of the market and I sold it in less than 24hrs for full price to the first guy that came by. Phone was blowing up all night and day. Pretty ridiculous but I guess $5-6k is entry level nowadays. On the flip side, took me nearly a year to sell my E46M and I was one of the cheapest ones listed.

Anything under 10 has always been quick sale, unless you're asking 10 for a first Gen crv with 300kms. Anything over 10 is pretty slow, I guess especially now with the recession

Dosent that mean you just underpriced lol

i owned this car twice :alone:

good honest little car - Mk3's were my go to daily for years. This was the last one I owned before I was forced to admit they were getting too old (or i was) to be suitable do everything (expecially ski trips) daily beater vehicles.

my current Mk6 GTI beater is just the newer version of this car and IMO is the sweet spot right now. You could find a decent one for 5k if you keep your eyes peeled.

I'd buy this back right now if I didn't know it would displace my already underutilized Corrado. There are very few good Mk3's left.

fun notes - both times I sold this car I became really good friends w the buyers. the second time I bought it, it was just about free. we got it back on the road and saved it. I don't know the current owner but I did speak to him yesterday. He's put a ton of good work into it. There's a really good scene for vintage watercooled VW's in the city right now - this could easily cruise w these groups and it's a really good time. Low and slow backroads all over the lower mainland.

I would've considered ours an outlier as comps were in the $2-4k range. Seemed a bit scummy to relist for higher but ya probably could've squeezed someone for a few bucks more. Going to a good home regardless and should be a decent first car not needing any major work.

E46 330CI ZHP Vert - 285K - $8K

Fun summer vert, high KM though, seemingly well kept.

Thought only american ars got ZHP.

seller seems to know that it's a ZAM car and not a ZHP (basically the same thing).

gotta list ZHP for the clicks. i'd say a seller that knows about these packages is someone that I would want to do a deal with. clearly an enthusiast to some degree.

car looks decent - especially on it's correct wheels minus the heinous ebay headlights. this would be a good car for my mom

After just recovering from the dreaded BMW chime on my 128i, I wouldn't do that to my own mom. :(

i'd buy it, looks well kept

If I didn’t have my 2nd car this would be it

Someone pick this up

330i zhp package sedan 6 speed for 10k

^I don’t even know what the fuck this means. Every time someone says ZHP people go nuts but it’s obviously worse than a full blown m3 e46 right ? Then what’s the bloody point ?!?!

Probably not a great comparison but you can kind of think of it like Civic Si vs Type R

Yeah it's like a Civic SI HFP or like the Mugen Civic Si we got for the 8th gen. Clearly not a Type R but still cherished.

Yeah, I like both of those descriptions. Accurate. A tiny bit spicier (black pepper) Civic Si, but vastly different from a Type R. Also limited #s, so rare factor. Think spicy trim package or in modern terms, BMW MPPK1/2 / M Performance 335i/340i.

plus the normal m3 looks better, the headlights on this zhp or whatever always looked goofy to me.

:okay::okay::okay:

Stop... I don't want black cars anymore

My old car!! New owner was a great guy, definitely maintained it properly and looked after it. Still think about how much fun this was to drive/own

Continuing the Bimmer Binge
