too bad we didn't know about this ahead of time, we could have had someone with a 318ti.org shirt run behind him as he said that ... flashing him the bird.

oh well. the guy has probably never even seen a ti in person. the ti also was quite a bit cheaper than the 1-er (especially after you add what you really want to it). of course, the ti "lowered the value of the brand" but the 318i didn't. whatever you tool!

does the 1-er actually have a dipstick still? they seem to be taking away more and more real drivers would want (hey, how about oil pressure and oil temp gauges!).

EDIT: i should be used to driving "the whipping boy" by now. i had pontiac fieros before the ti, lol

This guy doesn't know sh*t about what he's talking about. "Do they have cows in Boston?". Not funny, he shouldn't try to use humor for he isn't good at it. Ti = Crap, that's a bunch of BS.

Im not really sure what this guy has against the 318ti.. but they did pick a pretty nice looking red "piece of crap" in the video... the reviewer's tone of voice and his face seem like a joke.. I thought cars.com was more professional.

Best reply on youtube:
"i bet after talking **** about the 318ti he drove off in his base model hyundai. i don't think he should even have the privilege of driving a 318ti."

Yeah shame on cars.com for putting that asshole in front of a camera. This guy has obviously not been in the business long, he was obviously very nervous and I think thats where the lame attempts at humor came from. If you watch it again notice that he looks away from the camera a lot and is on the verge of shaking. Im not giving him a excuse for calling the ti a piece of crap but he probably did it at an attempt at humor. Cars.com still did choose to not only put it on youtube but also leave that part in, I would have expected professionals to edit something like that out. What a ass, I hope he's at the Chicago Auto Show....
