Hey I posted a lot here a while back, but my ti was stolen and set on fire so I moved on to a 325i. I've done a lot of work to it (turbo, coilovers, the usual) but I miss the awesome little machine my ti was. So I'm looking for another ti as a project car. Maybe one with a blown motor. So my questions are. -What's the average price for these now? -Are there any new options for FI besides DASC? I had more questions but now that I typed all that out I forgot. Anyway I'm looking foward to getting back into a ti and surfing this forum again.  __________________  |  |  | | 11-12-2008, 12:41 AM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2008 Location: Hawaii Kai Posts: 232 |

I suggest doing a few searches on cars.com, autotrader.com, craigslist, etc. to see what's out there for sale. Quote: Originally Posted by 1rstbmw! -Are there any new options for FI besides DASC? | DASC isn't much of an option any more since they're out of production. It seems like you need a lot of good luck and good karma to find a used one. There's a new turbo attempt in the works here, and it actually looks promising. I think the builder mentioned that they were considering putting together a kit once they're successful. A quick search should find that thread easily. Good luck! __________________ Real men know how to SEARCH!

I gave up on all of it. __________________ | | | | | 11-13-2008, 05:12 AM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 |

The bumper was taken off before they burned it and thrown to the side. The headlights were off because I broke a clip on one and needed to find a new lense. __________________ | | | | |
