I got what you were saying. Needles in cars are attached to little servo motors that are controlled by a dedicated computer. The computer can move that needle as quickly as it needs to and to whatever position it wants.
My guess is that this is the fitted luggage set for a 400 Superamerica. I want the luggage ... and the car (My friend has the ex-Rockefeller one. Un-*******-believable).

Hey GreenFrog (or anyone else with ZHP experience),
I'm in the market for a new daily and want to know the ownership considerations on a manual 330ci ZHP hard top. I'm looking to spend 10-15k for an '04-'06 with 100k or less on the ODO. I'd only drive it about 5000 miles a year. What can I expect to spend on maintenance per year? I'd DIY most of it.
It won't really be much different than maintenance on a regular E46 330i or 325i. The ZHP suspension uses higher-quality components than other non-M E46s and therefore lasts longer though parts of it (especially bushings) are going to feel tired by 100k miles. $10-15k is the top end of the scale, so you could afford to buy one in tip-top condition. I usually go the other direction and get a cheap one that I know needs work because I know that even the best cars are going to need some work and I may as well just get it all out of the way at once. Labor is far and away the most expensive part of maintenance and refreshing older cars, so if you DIY, you can get a lot done for not much $$. Suspension parts such as control arms and shocks are the most expensive parts that are likely maintenance items. Other maintenance parts such as bushings, filters, seals, fluids, etc., are relatively inexpensive.

Lots of snow here, so forced to drive the SUV all week, until today.... drove the AMG. :tounge:
The SUV is an Infiniti that I've had for ages. Good for Home Depot runs and bad weather. Probably will replace it soon for one that's a bit more exciting to drive.JayJay, what cars are in your 'roster' / garage, again? I didn't know you had an SUV.
I also only had the car for 1.5 years, so it wasn't a very long ownership period
