Good First Car?

[DJLotus]

Hello all!
I came acrossed this site while looking for info about this particular car, the 318ti. Imagine that! Well anyways, I live in Clovis(Fresno same thing), California, and I am looking for a car. During my looking i cam across a 1995 318ti for $3800. I instantly fell in love after I saw some pictures. This site helped a bit too

but anyway. I don't have much info on it at the moment, but I'm going to call tomarrow and try to setup a meeting to look at it. This (if I luck out and do get it) will be my first car. I am 18 and a senior in High School, it's getting damn near graduation, and my mother has offered to pay for a car for me.

So I would like to know: are there anythings I should look for? And are there things that should turn me off to it? Any help/opinions will be appreciated. I'll update as soon as I contact the seller and get some more info.

Thanks,
John
