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.

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

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.

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.

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

^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.
