I don't know numbers but I wouldn't be surprised if it is as rare as Sports if not more considering most ti's had sunroofs and were the active models I think.

I'd prefer no sunroof also. A Sport doesn't add anything other than cosmetics, suspension and fog lights.

I'm willing to be all non sunroofs where ordered by customers and not a dealer.

Eddie, be on the lookout for someone who wants something different that will differentiate them from the pack. Someone who might otherwise want a customized Mini or Fiat 500. Or, someone who once owned a ti and misses it like crazy. There are fewer and fewer ti's on the road each day, and so our favorite car is going to be more of a rarity, especially in mint or near-mint condition. Don't be in a hurry to sell unless you truly need the money quickly.

I know of at least two very nice stock ti's that have sold for $10K within the past year.

Maybe 318ti.org is not the best place to look for a buyer.

Sun roof delete and the LSD make it a pretty rare bird.

Most BMW people are spoiled by the usual inline 6 and have not discovered the finer points of a ti espcially one with a DASC, but I do have to say unlike 1996 328ti, I would prefer a 95' base with no sunroof, as it is the least cluttered simplest/lightest model, with the most future swap potential too, being the only year to be OBD1.

Thank you for the education. Decided I am now going to keep it. The car is just too good to let go. Bang for the buck it can't be beat.

Thank you for the advice. Have seen the light. Don't need the money. Going to keep it. Love this little car.

Just noticed you also have the mudflaps, I have looked for those for a while and can't find them, so thats another good things.

Honestly, with the DASC, basic suspension, a shorter shift, and just maintenance you got yourself a good fun little car. Don't get caught on the power bug though because you will come back with a hole in your wallet and never fully satisfied, enjoy driving it on some twisties and it will make you smile.
