Its a 95 alaska blue, leather interior (w/steering wheel and shifter), 15" 10spoke wheels, 10 speaker audio, no heated seats. I just bought it and am having the hardest time finding it's edition (active, club, etc). Any help would be great!

Thanks, Clint

A Sport would have 16" wheels and M-technic trim.
Base would normally have steel wheels.
A 95 Club Sport would be Black or Red with M3 mirrors.

Do you have cruise and computer?
Then I would guess it is an active.

Yes I do have cruise control and the computer unit! The lower body trim is also gray, along with the lower portion of the bumper. So is it an active?

Thanks,

Clint

Yep. It's an active.

318ti [US]
All
All Compacts came standard with All Season Traction Control starting sometime in 1996. Engine-speed-sensitive power steering. Heated windshield washers and door mirrors. Body-colored bumpers and side skirts started in 199x. Rear window wiper. Anti-theft AM/FM stereo/cassette audio system, pre-wired for CD. 10x20 watt amplifier (at 10% total harmonic distortion) with 10-speaker sound system. Tachometer. Driver and passenger seat height adjustment. Split fold-down rear seats. Power windows with "one-touch" feature. Air conditioning with micro-filtered ventilation system. Cup holders and console valet. Anti-lock braking system (ABS). Driver’s and passenger’s front airbag supplemental restraint system (SRS) with differentiated deployment system to help prevent unnecessary passenger’s airbag deployment. Central locking system with switch in center console. Coded Driveaway Protection (prevents engine start when special key with constantly changing electronic code is not used) Automatic front belt tensioners. Crash sensor that automatically turns on hazard lights, interior lights and unlocks doors. BMW Scheduled Maintenance.

Base
15" steel wheels with cover. All season tires. Cloth seats.

Active
The Active package included, electric sunroof, 15" sport alloy wheels with 205/60R all-season tires, leather steering wheel and shift knob, cruise control, on-board computer, remote keyless entry system and alarm, metallic paint.

Sport
In 1995 the Sport had the same 15" wheels and tires as the active and did not have body colored sidevie mirrors. Only the 1995 Club Sport had 16" wheels which later became standard.

Thanks for the info! I just saw the front sway bar tonight while working on it, whew! It keeps getting better. The only problem is that this thing sits as high as a 4X4. I have never owned a stock ride height car and don't intend to break that commitment. Any suggestions on springs? Thanks again! Clint

Ooh, ooh, me next!

I can't figure out what model mine is either...I've pretty much concluded that it's a base with a few options....

1995 Schwartz Ti:
-sport seats (non-heated)
-fog lights
-15" 10-spoke wheels
-4 (?) speaker stereo w/trunk changer

Doesn't have:
-OBC
-Cruise Control
-M-tech anything

Thanks,

Fraser

Most likely a Sport.
I did not know that the 95 Sport had fog lights.

Arrow Me next - what's this?

Hi,

I'm a noob, trying to buy a 318ti...

I've posted elsewhere on this site asking what this car is, so I'll just link to it here - I'm guessing that's the right thing to do...

Hi,

Mine is definitely an Active except for the sunroof, wich I do not have. Was it a separate option?

ok...I have a question...
I know that there's base, sport, clubsport, and active...
Is there a California package (separate from the other ones mentioned), or was the cali roof just an option?
I know that it was an option, but I was wondering if there was a package...
Recently I've been thinking about that top haha...
(Hopefully this hasn't been discussed before and sorry for hijacking if it is...)

There was a California Edition, 96 or 97. By 98 it was available as an option.
