Default Old BMW dork, new ti owner

Hey everyone,
I just picked up my first ti; a 10/95 Hellrot Clubsport. It's my 4th BMW. Any one from Bimmerfest already knows me, but in case you're not on there I figured I would make an intro.

I live in Atlanta, I used to work for BMW here. I just sold my "forum-famous" Avus 95 M3 about a month ago. The Clubsport will be getting S50 swapped.

Why the hell cant I make an avatar?

Here's the pics...








I'll post some better ones when I figure this forum out. I can't figure out how to attach photos, make a sig, make an avatar... lol I have like 20,000 forum posts and I feel like a noob.

Welcome to the fold. You should be able to upload an avatar from your User panel. For signature files, make sure they are the correct size otherwise they do not work. You might notice the sigs here are not the same size as your typical bf.c size (2.4x6).

Beautiful car. if you want to sell the front seat(s) let me know!

Beautiful car. Sounds like it will be undergoing a transformation of sorts?

Enjoy your stay

Hey thanks for the warm welcome!
My seats are definitely not going up for sale, the flawless interior was the main reason I picked this car up. Sorry guys.

Still having trouble getting my avatar to work...

Just kinda curious... why did you choose a Club Sport to be the recipient of an S50 swap, rather than a "less rare" 318ti?

Welcome to the 318ti family and site! This place is way better than bfc. Your ti is in good shape. Curious why did you pick a ti after selling your m3?

I was ti shopping. I ran across a fairly well-kept CS for sale for a fantastic price less than 4 hours from my house. (the seller had no idea what a CS was. He told me it was an "M3 styled 318ti")
It was a no brainer decision.

bf.c is a ****hole full of turd-burglars. The M3 had over 200k miles on it and it got hit pretty bad. The interior was really rough, and I just didnt want to sink any more time and money into putting it back together. I kind of just looked around at ti's for sale out of curiosity, and I actually didn't decide that I was buying one until I saw the ad for my car and simply couldnt pass it up.

Yes, I have the two-tone red/black millpoint interior.
