I was back in Indiana for the 500 and to visit family when I saw a silver 318ti for sale on a small used car lot in LaPorte. I stopped and took a few photos and got the contact info for the lot. I don't know what year, mileage, or what they're asking as they were closed when I stopped. The car looked decent from a distance but had some rough spots up close.
If there is interest, I can follow up with some pics, lot contacts, and VIN. All info is still on my camera at home as I haven't had a chance to download all my photos from the trip. I am home in CA now so what I got is what I got. I have no association with the seller; just spreading the ti love. |  |  | | 06-08-2010, 05:55 PM | #2 | | Member Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: Flowery Branch, GA, USA Posts: 97 |

I hadn't noticed the difference in side skirts and front corners. I was overwhelmed by the fact that I saw a ti in LaPorte, IN. Must admit I am not a fan of the mirrors. What you may not have noticed is the "Powered by BMW" stickers below the side markers. A BMW powered by BMW... who would have guessed that? Maybe someone can rescue this one? | | | | | 06-09-2010, 08:32 AM | #8 | | Junior Member Join Date: May 2010 Location: Newport RI Posts: 8 |
Ass end is definitely lowered or it needs shocks, front emblem looks shady and the side view mirrors are tacky. Did they wire the turn signals on those mirrors? What are they asking for this? | | | | | 06-09-2010, 04:16 PM | #9 | | Member Join Date: Nov 2009 Location: Lake Forest, CA Posts: 48 |

He's asking $3500 and it has 133,000 on it. Say's the same girl has owned it for the last 10 years and he has done the service for the last 8 years. Sounds like a good guy, he pointed out the parts that didn't match and that is was in a minor accident. He was very surprised to hear me calling from RI and already knowing the VIN #.  | | | | | 06-09-2010, 10:31 PM | #11 | | Member Join Date: Nov 2009 Location: Lake Forest, CA Posts: 48 |

Thanks for getting the additional info. I was curious, but not enough to actually call them as I'm not planning on buying a another ti anytime soon. | | | | |
