Added a ti to the collection
 

Hey guys, just added a 318ti to the mix, though I'd join the forum and see what I can get out and what I can add to it!

I started 15 years ago with an automatic E30 325i. Got rear ended and totaled and replaced it with another E30 325i 5-speed that I still drive and have modified a little bit. I also have a E46 325i 5-speed that is my wife's DD.

I picked up Cosmos Schwarz 318ti 5-speed as a DD. She does need some work however, I got $700 worth of parts coming my way. Also a good cleaning inside and out is in order. Plans are just maintenance to take care of her.

Pics coming.

Welcome to the site! :biggrin:

Congrats on the ti and welcome! Make sure you include the cooling system in that maintenance, I'm sure you'll have lots of fun together

added a pic to the original post.

Thanks for the welcomes. Cooling is def on the list! thanks!

Where in MD are you? I'm a relatively new TI owner as well and am in DC.

i am in the baltimore area, about 75 minutes from DC.

I did used to live in Montgomery County, near the end of the red line.

When I first joined the board a couple months ago, there was talk about getting some of the DC/MD/VA TIs together before the end of the summer, but time slipped away as it tends to do and nothing happened.

I am planning to attend the Rockville Car Show on Oct. 17 and the NCCBMWCCA Cars n' Coffee/Autocross/Swap Meet on Oct. 25 in Bowie. If you're thinking of attending either, drop me a line!

will do!

Woohoo! I just joined too.
Welcome!!!

^^^ welcome fellow new comer!

i should be finished with this thing and driving it. but when i was doing the brakes i found a nearly seized caliper. on the hunt for another. may end up upgrading to vented rotors and calipers.

Nice. A proper cleaning.
I spy Style 68s.
They look great on the ti.

yup, they came with the car. the original steelies have snows on them. only three wheel covers though.
