Default NEW Member/Owner 318ti Cali Ed

hello everyone my name is Gil and I just wanted to introduce myself and my new ride. It's a 96 aqua metallic California Edition that I bought as a commuter in order to give my 97 M3 Sedan a break. I wasn't even looking for a ti as a commuter but I was fed up looking at thrashed Honda's for way too much money. The light turned on and I started looking at ti's and they're potential and it led me to this gem. Of course being a total car pervert I can't leave it stock so I've installed H&R race springs, K&N short ram intake and some newer style rims. It's pretty sluggish being an automatic but I figure once the tranny gives me a problem I'll switch it over to manual. I'm currently getting 27mpg but I've not yet given it it's full service including spark plugs and wire set. I also plan on putting it on a diet by removing some dead weight and making it more limber.
