It's in the San Diego area. Looks extremely well cared for. 168k on the clock. If it were Red I would be driving it home .

Even my hub caps were very clean. I wish I had the money to buy that one. Would love to have 2 clean ti's. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36. They were "Keepin it Real" when they introduced the 318ti ClubSport in '95 and the 318ti Sports from '96 to '99. After that... well nothing else really matters. ~Jess | | | | 03-22-2009, 12:42 AM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 | looks clean, but he has an M3 cluster with the M42, seems kind of odd there's no pics of the cluster on which makes me wonder if the manipulation dot is on | | | 03-22-2009, 12:55 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: Ma Posts: 176 | That's very clean and it's a '95. Wish my '95 was just as clean, but mine is showing signs of aging. | | | 03-22-2009, 01:46 AM | #5 | Member Join Date: Jul 2008 Location: ny Posts: 62 | hey honestly its a beautiful car and i wish one of those would have been for sale when i bought my ti but that is almost too clean it seems to good to be true like someone must have died in it or it must be fake or something but even soo i think i would still buy it but it only motivates me to make a ton of cash and bring mine up to that condition. | | | 03-22-2009, 04:38 AM | #6 | NOBODY F's with the Jesus Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Ventura California Posts: 7,824 | For a second I thought that was my old ClubSport. Had to verify the VIN, it was pretty close!

I can't resist it.

Nice looking car. I wonder if the tach is off though because of the M3 cluster? The seats are remarkable considering the age. The previous owners must have weighed nothing. It's just missing one thing.

I hope someone here gets this car. It looks great and with an AZ title should be perfect under the car. | | | 03-22-2009, 07:46 PM | #11 | NOBODY F's with the Jesus Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Ventura California Posts: 7,824 | Quote: Originally Posted by jaimito79 I almost thought the same thing, but that thing was to clean compared to what you described to me.

Hope he takes your offer, that would be an awsome car to start over with. Quote: Originally Posted by 1996 328ti This is the first ad I can recall where the description was factually correct.

Hopefully it'll be sportin a decal in the near future. I have a couple extras that I'd be willing to give to the buyer if he/she becomes a site supporter since you mentioned that you're out of them at the moment Steven.

My clubsport has a sunroof and I heard there were only a few that were made without it. Sure the frame is a bit stronger on the ones that don't have it. __________________ Road to redemption... | | | 03-22-2009, 09:30 PM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Greenville, SC Posts: 9,356 | Quote: Originally Posted by leighsean95ti what do you mean "manipulation dot"? is that a fraud device or safety device or something? | Fraud device for when the mileage in the cluster doesn't match the ECU. __________________ ...steven BMW CCA #146825 1996 BMW 328ti • 2003 MINI Cooper S • 2016 M235i www.bmwcca.org | | | 03-23-2009, 12:00 AM | #15 | Member Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: Spokane,WA.
