Default Greetings Everyone

Hi all,

Just touching base and introducing myself to you all. I'm new to this site and will be a proud new owner of a black '03 318ti. I went for a test drive last weekend and after 5 minutes of drooling i decided to buy it. I'm stoked and can't wait to pick it up sometime next week. Will post some photos asap. Anyways i'm from Brisbane Australia and i'm an estate agent. Imagine me rocking up to houses with this car at 27 years of age. Woo HOO can't wait. Take it easy and hope to make some good friends here.

Ps. By the way... i've looked for many websites that can give me more information about the 03 318ti but it seems like it's very hard to find. Hmm hope someone can direct me to the right direction. Thanks

Check out the Yahoo autos 318ti group. There is at least one other Aussie active on there. Think he has an e36ti and e46ti.
