Any interest in snapping images of the undercarriage and engine? Just curious if a TX car would have less rust than ours up north. Am interested and researching a shipping quote to Alexandria VA, unless you think it would drive up here without issue. You described the OEM wheels as custom but am not sure why. Any leaks or engine squeals? Has it ever overheated? How long ago was the coolant system flushed? Last o-change? What owner # are you?

Thanks!
(Feel free to PM the above)

I am the third owner. The car was originally purchased in Colorado. I do not believe you would have any problems driving the car to Virginia. There are no squeals in the engine and as far as I know the engine has never over heated. The coolant has not been fluslhed in the past five years. The Service indicator has one bar left before the next oil change is needed. I can have it done before you pick the car up. I will be happy to take additional photo from any angle.

Hey - Seems like you've also got a swapped E36 M3 steering wheel... very very clean

Nope- that wheel was standard on the 1999 ti. :)

I don’t know, but I have tried to email Phil a few times over the last week, with no replies at all.

Looks like a pretty nice ti down in your neck of the woods.

Hi brayant23.

I just now received an email from the seller, what timing, unfortunately the seller told me that he is "currently working with someone" so the sale is pending on this one right now. If I hear anything else I will let you know as your in Texas so it is more cost effective for you as I was looking at shipping this car back to Colorado where it really belongs:wink: which would run me an additional $900 to $1,200 and I really don't need anymore vehicles but I am always looking to add some nice additions to my personal fleet, like this ti for example.

Sales that are pending are funny to me, either someone buys it or not, I once showed up and looked at a car with cash in hand like I always do and I will pay in full on the spot and take possession the title immediately and come back later for the car with new tags but in this case someone that had just looked at the car right before me and had left, then telephoned the seller that he wanted the car so the seller honored that request and the car was "sold" and so I was out of luck. And as it worked out, that car was in the "sale is pending" status for nine weeks, yes I said nine weeks, after which time the seller called me and asked if I would still like to buy it because the other seller backed out, just typical.
