She thought it'd be fun not to stay stopped at her sign as i was passing by. __________________ 1997 318ti Schwarz II FB | | | 03-11-2008, 05:21 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | damn!! any pictures of it? __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | 03-11-2008, 05:28 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Waco/Austin, TX Posts: 233 | Quote: Originally Posted by thesk8nmidget damn!! any pictures of it? | Repairs estimate at 5k, the closest total loss ever.

In retrospect i should have parted it out.. but after 2 months of messing with it i was ready to wash my hands of it all. Don't have the wheels, sorry. They certainly were pretty wheels, but heavier than all get out. __________________ 1997 318ti Schwarz II FB | | | 03-11-2008, 06:05 PM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | thats too bad! im looking for a nice set! __________________ -Josh Sold-1995 318ti, Club Sport, Hellrot Sold-1996 318ti, Active Model, Boston Green Current- 1995 318ti, sport model, schwartz | | | 03-11-2008, 07:39 PM | #10 | That's not Millpoint Blue Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: BNA Posts: 3,161 | Quote: Originally Posted by thesk8nmidget im looking for a nice set! | Hmmm...

Not that I really love chrome on any color. Ah, but your interior is 2 years older than mine, and Red Millpoint looks better in a black car anyway. :-p Once I get my Style 43's installed, I'll still be one up on ya.

LOL ( In case the Kool-Aid reference is too old for ya) I'm not a huge fan of the mirrors on the Club Sport, but the LSD gives ya a +1. Where in the hell are you going to buy Millpoint Red fabric??? I'd love to come up with a source for Millpoint Purple cloth so that I can someday put that in a Techno Violet 318ti, then put the chrome wheels on that car. It'll be "BMW Pimp." It'll be years before I have the spare cash for that project, but I'm sure I'll still have the damn wheels. grrrrrr Seriously though... congrats on finding a decent Club Sport, now don't screw it up!!! __________________ Real men know how to SEARCH!
