Hello there 318ti.org members
I'm new to this board & I've got a few questions. First off let me tell you about myself..
I drive a 1991 Honda CRX SI, no modifications outside of aftermarket wheels & tires.
http://www.pashnit.com/roads/cal/YerbaBuena.htm <-- That's my favorite road. I am a total canyon lover and I absolutely *love* my CRX for this, I drive yerba buena 3-4 times a week if that says anything (The road has 188 turns in 12 miles). But... the CRX is a '91.. its old.. its dated.. it needs love. Unfortunately, it was my first car and i'm extremely attached to the idea of a small hatchback... too bad none look good to me. Then one day while grabbing a burger I saw this beautiful car and I ran up to it wondering who could possibly make this car.. whaddya know, its a 318ti. I'm in love with this car but my friends are telling me "Keep your crx, the 318 is a POS","You have to pay yearly maintenance on it from BMW and they rip you off". I dont trust them though because they said the same thing about the crx. These guys are dorks with cleartails and broken Civic DX's, they wouldn't know a canyon if they flew off the side of the grand canyon
So on to the point of my post -- I need to make a decision, i'm looking for a cheaper vehicle that has features I want (
REAR WHEEL DRIVE HATCHBACK
.. ahem, power windows, power steering, SPACE, and other things as well. Is everything my friends keep telling me about the maintenance true? I don't really care about speed as I hardly hit over 50 while i'm having fun on my roads, but cost is definently an issue as i'm only 21
I'd appreciate your guys' input & also like to thank you for having good taste in cars
