Washed and Waxed. [56k Warning!]

[thesk8nmidget]

sweet!!!!

K so here they are. I wasn't quite sure what you meant by "down low"...so I just took a few shots of the wheels and surrounding areas from about ground level. Enjoy!







This one I'm including cuz the barrel distortion, in my opinion, makes the ti look like an old Saab


I'm getting some interior shots as soon as this is posted...it's not quite as clean but ohwell.

[tiFreak]

looks like your missing some color from the ///M wheel badge in the first pic, and yeah, it does look like a saab in the last pic

[BakeR318]

Yeah...sadly they lose their color over time. Here's the interior for what it's worth:









And the damned hole that got burned through the fabric (and into my ass) from the heated seats:



Sorry for the glare and poor image quality..was quite sunny and didn't want to wait for it to calm down.

Sigh.. I wish I had a sport interior :/ The next ti will be a manual sport! Nice shots Baker, even if there's a lot of glare. You should mess with the wide angle lens more, it looks good.

[BakeR318]

Thanks ATF. I mess around with it plenty...I'm an active photographer outside the automotive world as well, and the wide angle gets its fair share of use. If what you meant was take more shots with the wide angle...will do!

Damn Baker, your ti looks great. Looks like it's in more-or-less perfect condition, and I too wish I had the sport interior (oh well).

The nice weather we've been having got me thinking on a MD meet sometime. Would you be down? And how far would you be willing to drive?

[BakeR318]

Thanks for the comments Quinn! I'd probably down for a meet. I've got a LOT of stuff going on in the near future, with graduation and all closing in. We will definitely have to have one this summer though...I'd so be down for a nice drive with a bunch of ti drivers.

Hey man I feel you. We talking high school? If so, been there done that, and it is a very busy time so no worries. Where you planning on going to university?

Sometime mid-late July would honestly be the best time for me. Working close to full time over the summer, and driving out to College Park every night and back for a summer class throughout June is gonna leave me with very little time too.

I'm thinkin mid-late July as well actually. Yeah I'm talking about highschool. I'm going to to Rochester Institute of Technology next year, all the way up in up-state NY. Gonna freeze my ass off with the ti...depending on cash flow I may be looking into getting some kind of AWD 3 series.

Thanks man...that's the way I tend to like my cars as well. Even under heavy modification, I like to retain at least a 'sleeper' look. Works best, to me at least.

RIT, good school, congrats on getting in. Have fun with the snow

[thesk8nmidget]

very nice! do your heated seats not work anymore or just got to hot and burned up the seat?

[BakeR318]

No the heat still works fine...girlfriend uses it without issue in the passenger seat. It's just...some wire got too close to the fabric and burned a hole through it...and into my ass

[StealthBimmer]

Nice pics of the 318ti. Looks nice and clean... keep them coming. The wheel stickers are like $5 each at the dealership. Hey I don't see any 318ti.org sticker?
