I'm thinking about buying a ti. Ask all your questions about the possible purchase of a ti. Keep in mind, we are biased.

Default Pictures of my new ti.

Well it is not really new but new enough for me.
1996 318ti with 100700 miles on it.
Manual
All new suspension and brakes
all new tires
serviced on regular bases at the dealer throughout the lifetime.
$4.5k
So what do you think how did I do?
the only problems that I can think of is that the car has rust spots showing up on both sides of the rear fenders, I am planing on taking it in to the body shop to fix those so they don't spread






I don't know that much about Ti's is this an active model?
By the way see that covered up car. Thats my old m-tech e30 which was totaled by a drunk Mexican in a huge pick up truck.

welcome, sucks about the E30 but at least you've joined our family from what I can tell you do have an active, I think you have the two-button OBC next to your radio, if it's just a clock, you have a base

LOOKS identical to my first ti and the only difference was you have leather.

good deal i paid 4300 and i also had 160,000 miles!

you got a good deal for sure!

and i would say active since it has cruise control and looks like obc

so many people come and go after their initial post... but stick around, you'll learn SO much!

Nice looking car too, welcome to the board!

Thank you, thank you.
Yes it is an obc. I got a remote for it on the steering wheel.
And I will be around, not going anywhere any time soon.

Nice color on your new ti!
You will have alot of fun with it.
Bimmer drivers back east have my sincere sympathies, with all that rust you have to watch out for.
We "left coast" people are extremely lucky in that regard.
About the only rust we see out here is on REALLY old surf wagons, and it's all down the posts around the back windows and fenders. :-)
