Some old lady backed into my car! The hood, the grills and the left headlight are gone. The bumper is just pushed in a little on the left side.. Then the radiator bracket and maybe the radiator need to go. Also the intake is pushed up a little but can be fixed. Everything else is perfect on the car. All black leather interior, stock radio, leather steering wheel, Michelin Sport Tires, Heated seats, all electrics work, cold A/C, rear lip spoiler, it's such a tragedy for me. The sunroof motor works but some one messed with the slides and broke them so it does not open. Also the headliner needs to be glued( I could do that for you ). I've changed the pass side tie-rod. Bumper grill is painted in aluminum silver, which matches the rims perfectly. Rims are 16" 10 double spoke(5 series e39 I think).
I love my TI but my dad makes me put it for sale as is and take the money from the insurance. They averaged the damages around 3000 but if done by yourself its not going to be that expensive. The hood is the most expensive part around $450. All the other parts are around $100-$200. I'm so sad and mad I have to do this.
ALL THE DETAILS:
Model: 1998 318ti
Engine is stock.
Mileage: 94xxx
I know if I part the car I would get money out of it but I feel better if I sell the whole car here. I do not want this wonderful machine to be forgotten and just smashed in some junk yard!
Thanks

I will take some pics, I just haven't gotten time. I will try to post pics tonight but I don't promise anything.. sorry. It's been crazy around. And yea I'm located in Orlando, Florida. I'll keep you updated. As of the car as a whole I was thinking around 2000, because of the condition and all the parts that are not affected.  | | | | | 07-11-2009, 06:23 AM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Safety Harbor, FL Posts: 112 |

There's some pics of the car. The intake has to go but I'm not sure since I can't open the hood. I'll keep you posted. I'm gonna go to the inspection soon and will know everything about it and be able to be 100% accurate. | | | | | 07-12-2009, 03:49 PM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Raleigh/Charlotte, NC Posts: 1,233 |
Auto or manual?
Would you consider 1k? I had recently purchased a 97 in almost perfect condition for 2500 in NC with barely higher mileages, and it was a Sport. __________________ -Jeff

It's and Auto and you got a great deal! I purchased the car for 4500 and put money and my sweat into it. Only the tires are 700 and they barely have 500 miles on them. Everything works and its in perfect condition. Only the headliner needs to be glued, or a new one. I went trough the site and cars like that go for around 6000-6500. I will see again if the insurance gives additional money once the shop estimates it. If there's more things than I though I will lower the price. As for now I will stick within 3k or a offer when someone comes to see it and then makes the offer. You really have to see how perfect the interior is. I will post pics of the interior later.

I know man... I already told him he does. Anyway, I convinced him to take me to a BMW junkyard. There's one close by us, so I might fix it up. That would be sweet!!! But if anyone is still interested in the car hit me up. and there's some pics of the interior. The quality of my cam is not the best. lol sorry | | | | | 07-13-2009, 04:06 AM | #13 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Louisiana Posts: 1,093 |

yeah.. that's really far. So I am waiting for the check from the insurance company and parting the car out for sure. Still will take an offer for the whole car if anyone interested. The car has many things that could be in use and help someone's project. | | | | | 07-18-2009, 08:02 PM | #15 | | Junior Member Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: Palm Beach Gardens, FL Posts: 1 |
