I hail from the wonderful city of Toronto, Canada. I am a long time BMW enthusiast and when I saw a hellrot red 97 318ti up for sale I jumped at the chance. I couldn't think of a better car to begin my BMW journey with. it has 260,000km on it but it purrs like a kitten and passed the emissions test better than most new cars these days so I knew the motor was in great shape. other than some minor body work (which I got the seller to take care of as part of my purchase price) the car is immaculate. I hope to have many years of enjoyment out of this baby!

I will post pics soon. I have no choice but to drive it in the winter. But it will be in a covered garage when not in use. I will be investing in rust proofing and undercoating. I already have a set of steel rims with new snow tires. | | | 07-29-2012, 04:31 AM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: SW Florida Posts: 4,275 | Welcome to the Org __________________ Sean 1995 Active | | | 07-29-2012, 06:06 AM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: Miami, FL Posts: 874 | Welcome to the org dude and can't wait for some pics since hellrot is my favorite color after schwartz __________________ Mods: 325is zender spoiler, 3" carbon fiber antenna, 5% tints rear windows, black out grills, Fogged air intake, Ds1 wheels, Rokkor coilovers, bilstein rear shocks, blacked out tails and home made angel eyes | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
