In all fairness to the OP's question, yeah you can be the first to retrofit a multi-link suspension setup onto the ti. I suppose you can also weld the hatch shut and add a trunk lid if that's what you're into, but I'd just buy a 318i or 318is instead of wasting your time on an inferior car built with leftover parts and compromised safety. I don't know what they were thinking when they designed these things, must of been trying to save money because the windows don't roll all the way down on their other cars  It's not like their headliners sag, windows fall off track or plastic cooling system parts break after 150k miles, that would be insane  |
Iv had a few cars with good and ****ty suspension but nothing iv driven beats the ti on our roads. I leave the V6 and V8 behind on the sharp turns and rough roads at top speed. I love the ti only reason why i havent sold it yet waiting for a diff.
