Default I think I saw my first ti on the road.

My 1998 ti was totaled in 2000.
I've followed the Carfax history and it's now in Greenville, SC.
Coincidentally where I moved to.

I saw a Bright Red Sport with a California Roof heading South on 85 just South of Greenville. If I was close to an exit I probably would have chased it down. Then I also thought, what would I say?

I want to buy it back.

If I did catch the car, there should be a water stain on the rear seat and holes from the CD bracket.

I was outside Atlanta this morning.

I'll go to Eurofest. Hopefully with the ti.

A tow truck f'ed up the bumper though.
I was towed due to a bad fuel pump.

They pulled too hard on the tow hook.
That was a week ago and I've already put miles on the car.
I had to leave before calling the towing company.

I'm told it's an easy fix.
Piece of wood and a BFH.
I'll take pictures.

Steven, that would be the ultimate 318ti.org invite! I could just imagine someone walking up and saying "Hey I'm the original owner of that car. Would you like to join my website which I created strictly for 318ti enthusiasts?"

Sure, sign me up!
