The car has high mileage (265K) but is very clean and in surprisingly good shape. It joins my 1976 BMW 2002. I've had a number of 70's and 80's BMWs but this is my first E36. I've always liked the look of the TI and am excited to have a new toy. I'm in Concord NC and am active in the local vintage BMW scene.

Ironically, when I was in high school in the late 90s, I considered a used (would have been 20 years old) 2002 but ended up buying a 240Z. I really wanted an E36 but never could have afforded it back then. Fast-forward 20 years, and now I have a E36, which seem like a bargain compared to 240Zs and 2002s in similar condition. I like to think of my 95 Clubsport TI as a 'modern classic.' | | | 12-17-2015, 04:59 PM | #3 | Junior Member Join Date: Dec 2015 Location: Concord, NC Posts: 19 | It's amazing how much the Ti feels like my 02, the driving experience is very similar, except for the whole A/C, power steering, power windows, radio you can actually hear thing. I've always wanted an old Datsun, haven't gotten that far down my car bucket list. | | | 12-17-2015, 11:15 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2012 Location: Dodging potholes in SoCal Posts: 454 | Welcome to the forum!
