My Club Sport Thread as some of you already know i recently found myself a club sport. it is one of 3 without a sunroof. new parts consist of this list New differential 2006 New serpentine belt 12/07 Chain tensioner 2004 shocks & struts , balljoints 2003 bushings/alinement 9/2006 flex disc 9/2006 compression test 2006--engine fine new windshield 2005 anyways this thread will be designated for the club sport and the process of me working on it abnd slowly building it up to what i want. i randomly found it by sending a message to a user with 8 posts and the thread was a year old. with my crazy luck she was selling it. my car sold the same day so i gladly gave her the asking price. i found myself an auto shipping from PA to TX (which was hell!!) because i wanted this car in my possession as soon as possible. i wouldnt have been able to go fly in and pick it up myself for another 3 weeks. shipping ended up costing me a pretty penny of 750 but with my luck and for that price i scored since it was picked up last night 1 business day after i hired a truck (was an estimated 3-5 days on pickup but ended up being 1) well heres the good part.... the truck was loaded last night and the previous owner was kind enough to take a few pictures for me to share with all of you. only downside was due to rushed timing and unexpected pickup time i get to keep the snow tires. but thats fine with me i will find myself a nice set of 17's and mount them up. http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/87...m/DSC00001.JPG http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/87...m/DSC00003.JPG http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/87...m/DSC00002.JPG http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/87...m/DSC00004.JPG http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/87.../DSC000051.JPG http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/87...m/DSC00006.JPG |

that sucks! what did you do with it? you by any chance still have those wheels? |
I gave it to the insurance company and took the check. 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. |
thats too bad! im looking for a nice set! |

hahaha i was waiting for you to say that! but no thanks! unless you wanna give em them and then i'll sand them down and paint them :) ps now i got my red millpont and you cant make me jealous ;) |
Hey, girls like shiney things, so I bet that your GF would like them. :-) Still, to be honest, I'm not sure I like chrome on red anyway. 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 |
my girlfriend has pretty good taste in cars and wheels. she hates chrome wheels on anything. and i am going to have to disagree my interior may be 2 years old but its in a club sport so i win win win! lol i have stock m tech mirrors and molding. and limited slip hehehe :) i actually wanna get a set of vaders and buy some red millpoint fabric and cover them with it and have stock looking vaders! :) |
some more pictures from the previous owner http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/873/clubsport.jpg http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/873/26.jpg http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/873/51.jpg http://www.318ti.org/gallery/data/873/62.jpg |
I see you've already drank the Club Sport Kool-Aid, and you don't even have it in your possession yet. 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??? :eek: 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 :mad: Seriously though... congrats on finding a decent Club Sport, now don't screw it up!!! :smile: |
