The ti looks very nice and love the German background! Are those M3 electric folding mirrors? The wheels I can do without. What kind of rear spoiler is that? Ti is getting rare so the price will hold for supply and demand. That would be a sweet little ride even for the US. |  |  | | 11-13-2007, 07:28 PM | #3 | | Member Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: NC Posts: 90 |

the mirrors are m3 "style" but with ugly base plates  its possible the are equipped with powerfold function, but they would need an auxilliary switch to fold. ther isnt as far as i know, a way to wire them so the open out on ingition.. the spoiler looks like a breyton jobbie :P niiice __________________

damn, it is a diesel, isn't it? I did not even catch that at first.
though it is a nicely kept car, it is grossly overpriced considering the engine.
perfect for swaps, though... LOL | | | | | 11-13-2007, 08:08 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 |

Diesels are much more common in Europe. Better economy, and I believe Diesel is usually cheaper. But you also can't really make a fair comment on the price. To somebody that lives in Europe 5k euro's is not the same as 8k dollars to us. It is not the sellers fault that the dollar is so weak right now against the Euro.
If the dollar was stronger than the Euro that car would be a steal at less than $5k. But to the seller it would all be the same. | | | | | 12-18-2007, 06:47 PM | #10 | | Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Belgium Posts: 37 |

And between 3500 - 4500€ is a fair price in Europe for a 318ti, but this one looks in good shape so maybe he can get around 5000€. | | | | | 12-18-2007, 06:55 PM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Land of the Vikings Posts: 2,700 |
