I have owned my 96 318ti for a little over 3 years, I have fallen in love with the ti's BUT its to a point where i either need to sell it before everything breaks or fork up some cash and make it back into the beauty it was.... I came across this just messing around the other day
http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/cto/1278979376.html the guy lives 20 miles from me so its not that hard to look at... 328ti... the motor he says doesnt start up b.c of fuel lines or fuel pump but will start with starting fluid.. I've talked him down on the price I am going to go look at it this tomorrow (Wednesday July 22nd). I am semi mechanically inclined (do all the work on my car) but have never done an engine swap. I have the tools to do this but not the knowledge for trouble shooting... Long story short even talked down alot the car has NO TITLE and NO GUARANTEE that the engine when dropped (its already modified for Ti) in my daily driver will start up!!!.Butttt it would be a 328ti plus I could fix all the minor things breaking in my car with the extra parts....I just don't know..with school starting i will have a lot of time to work on it. Ohhh and i would give 318ti.org first dibs on parts Sorry about any rush but please get back to me ASAP. My local beemer club doesn't meet until Thursday so it will be to late to ask them.. -Parker
Future of my Ti??
