Interestingly, I ended up buying a car where ZCP was the only package and part of a very small number of individual options (CF cloth trim, BT, and heated seats). Like you, I paid a premium for the car. I just had to have the car, what can I say!

Regarding the necessity of ZCP, I honestly couldn't tell you. I have never driven another e9x M3, so I have no experience. As these cars get older, higher mileage, and more rare due to accidents or mother nature, I would prioritize condition and mileage more than ZCP. I suppose if I was going to do it right, I'd have to drive a car with ZCP and one without to determine if I can feel a difference. I also was interested in buying a car that didn't need much tweaking and so far, the M3+zcp fits the bill nicely.
