remember man, unibody contruction, so replacing those side panels is damn near impossible, and will all have to be hammered out..
+1 to the "avoid this one" | | | | | 10-27-2006, 04:03 PM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Philly, PA Posts: 189 |

The body can be fixed. Even the rear 1/4's. It's that weird rear stance i'm not liking.
Ask them if it even aligns correctly. They are obviously looking to scam someone. Take 'em 5 hund and part it for $$. __________________

It looks good, I mean If the frame is in good shape, who cares about the body, if all the important parts work fine you got yourself a good car. Check under the car. I would really consider it, 1 the miles are kinda low, 2 the price! WOrk him down to 2 grand or 2500 | | | | | 10-28-2006, 08:05 PM | #9 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: maritimes Posts: 1,433 |
damn..
do TI's really go that cheap in the states?!?!?!
in canada, ive never seen one priced lower than $5000 for a 95 (depending on shape and whatnot) and it just goes up from there.. i paid $9600+taxes for mine with about 97,000 miles, but everything was mint mint mint as well.. damn i hope resale stays decent for a couple more years! lol __________________ 11/97 Base  328Ti

Ok I looked at the images better...
*first check the rear frame under the carpet, look for any frame damage..
*same with front
If the frame is in good shape, all you need to do it fix the body issues.
New hood would cost 350+
rear bumper 100+
Anyway this is most likely what my car looked like 4 years ago. My ti had body damage, so i am guessing to get the car back to tip top shape, 4 grand Min. But again if the frame is in good shape and all important parts work fine, you got youtself a good car that just needs body work. | | | | |
