This next car comes as a seller submission from Arthur who writes: Sadly the time to part ways with my 330i is here… Working on acquiring a LS3 swapped Volvo wagon and need some loot. I love this car. It runs so good. I looked at almost half a dozen before I pulled the trigger […]
BMW’s E46 generation 3 series was sold from 1999 to 2005 and if you wanted the hot M3 version it was only available in 2 door trim. Folks with little kids or the desire for a sedan had to settle for a regular 3-series, at least until the ZHP came out in 2004. The ZHP […]

BMW built their fast M3 version of the E46 3-series (1998-2006) in only two-door form…and the closest you could get to an M3 with 4 doors was the 330i ZHP.

However, if you wanted a wagon, you had to settle for a basic 325i trim…so the seller of this next car swapped all of the ZHP goodies into a wagon body and the rest is family fun.

BMW introduced the US spec E90 generation 3-series with a base model 325 and high end 330 model. The 330 would be powered by the last naturally aspirated inline-6 from the company that lived on sweet sounding I-6s for decades, but did they did save the best for last?
