do what im doing use the Ti as that everyday car for optimal gas mileage especially with gas prices today and get another car to mess around with (in my case my M3) IMHO, the Ti is a great car but i can't see myself fixing it up. Not the greatest platform to fix up, I think E36 M3 would be better compared to it. gluck to you __________________ 318Ti Sport (Gone, but thanks for your years of service) | M3 E30 | 190E-16V | M Coupe E36/8 |
