Default Thinking about selling my TI

I'm a semi newbie (well, owner for a month) and got my 1996 Red Standard 318TI from an original owner (90K miles).

I'm thinking about now selling it. I've had to buy new floor mats, wipers, 90K mile inspection II service, brakes and soon inside roof upholstery (yes, I heard they come down slowly but surely?) and possible side painting.

If I paint this baby, I"m going to have to keep it. I have a mobile company coming out friday but I may go by their place before then to get a quote.

The 318ti was partially keyed on both sides so this really sux.

I have been looking around to price this and the hard thing is I paid $6K and now i'll be losing out.

Its such a hard decision to make since I can't find any of way of justifying keeping the 318ti except for its rare.

I'm struggling with this and the fork in the road to decide is right up ahead.

I've even considered picking up a 318i or 318is after I sell the 318ti because they are bigger but there's still that small still voice that is agonizing over this.

Help!

I know how you feel. However, what possible difference will you get out of a 318i/is. Larger trunk: yes, rear seats: maybe not unless you get a four door. Iguess I'm always partial to hatchbacks if given the choice, because of the possible wagon like trunk capacity, sporty looks and practicality.
GOOD LUCK.
