It reminds me of the spinners on Bently, and Rolls Royce cars.

Actually if you surf the site you will find a link that leads to the US site www.bimmerspinner.com that should do it.

Anyone can buy a ti. That is there choice if they do not want to buy one. They are not expensive at all not this model.

I think the point Matt was trying to make is the fact that over here buying and owning a BMW is usually completely out of the financial reach of younger people, let alone "college kids"......insurance alone would probably amount to more than the purchase price of a clapped out used BMW for anyone under 21

For example to insure my daughter at 20 on a Ford Fiesta 1300 this year cost around £1500......more than the value of the car!!!

So yes.....anyone can buy a ti.......but not everyone once bought can afford to even put it on the road!

Best regards David

BTW...the spec you have

"98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active
clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue interior lights,PIAA lights,35% tinted windows,K&N air filter,Rockford Fosgate punch 12",MTX Thunder amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats and Carbon Fiber B-Pillars"

I'm not sure you would get any insurance company to even laugh at a quote for you over here on that ti with those mods!

Those spinners have been out for a while. They actually were out before the spinners where the whole diameter of the wheel spun. I forget what video it was, but shaq rolled up and his superman S kept spinning on his Benz.
