 Just something that I drew up, I know that they already have the 130i Compact but I was thinking about what an E92 318ti might look like, any thoughts? I used an E92 ///M3 as inspiration for the front end but pretty much did from the doors back by hand (and it probably shows lol). Just thought I'd share this with the ti community. |  |  | | 03-24-2010, 07:38 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Greenville, SC Posts: 9,356 |
Might have started with a E46 M Coupe first. __________________ ...steven

I don't think it looks bad, not as good as the original and could do with some improvement, I'll admit that my artwork is not as good as it could be and probably doesn't do the concept justice.

I think it's cool to speculate about what models would look like if BMW had continued making them (i.e. M1 concept etc.) I'm gonna work on an E30 and E46 next, who knows? maybe BMW will see the light and bring the ti back with all this eco/FWD talk (although god help them if they bring back the ti and make it FWD). | | | | | 03-25-2010, 06:31 AM | #10 | | Member Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: Virginia Posts: 80 |

My thought behind that was that they should bring the ti back because it's lighter and should in theory get better gas mileage. | | | | | 03-26-2010, 02:41 AM | #14 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 |
