Who are you??

[RobertOBCC]

Hello to Everyone!

I am in Kingston, Jamaica. I am a first time BMW Driver.

I like Fred.Larsen find myself driving around for no apparent reason other than to be in the car. I find myself volunteering to take one of my girlfriends home from work often, she lives in the Mountains, I love how the car whips right around the corners, its almost like its not even trying. You turn the Wheel and the whole car is around the corner in what seems like a millisecond without a roll or slip, amazing!

My 2002 316Ti has a 1.8 Liter 16v In-Line 4, Double-VANOS, Valvetronic, with ASC/T (Active Stability and Traction Control), Steptronic 5-Speed Auto, Anti-lock Brakes, Four Spoke Leather Multifunction Steering Wheel, Cruise Control

BMW Business with Cassette and Speed Sensitive Volume for the Radio, 6 CD Changer in the Rear, Rear Battery, Sport Seats w/ Fabric and Leather with Thigh Support, Alarm with Interior Motion Sensor,

Adaptive Transmission Management (Normal, Winter, or Hill Climb/Start-off), Shiftlock and Interlock, Sports Suspension with Central Arm Rear Axle with Anti Squat and Anti Dive, Single Joint Spring Strut Front Axle with Anti Dive, Anti-roll Bar Front and Rear,

Headlight Angle Control, Automatic Air Conditioning with Solar Sensor and Automatic Air Recirculation with Micro and Charcoal Filters, Light Alloy Wheels,

Car Key Memory, Rechargeable Key Remote through Ignition, Cargo Nets Back of Front Seats, Fog Lamps, Front+Side+Head(A-Pillar) Airbags, Central Locking with Electronic Immobiliser, and Crash Sensor. . I think that should be the majority.

I think My next Upgrade will be to get some larger Mags, maybe 17's w/ 225 55 Tires.

Anybody know of any Chip Upgrades for the Engine?

Hey all:
I'm a 36 year old auto and motorcycle nut. I own a 2001 BMW R1200c Phoenix motorcycle. ( a cruiser) And am in the process of buying ( hopefully) a 1996 Ti with 54k on it. When it comes to this car and the different models, I'm lost. The car I'm looking at has the upgraded stereo, ten speakers I think, is this a characteristic of any special model? What sucks big time is there is no owners manual with the car, is there a way to find out the model thru the vin number? And what about the manual, can I get one for a 1996 model? Thanks for the help.

My name is Bryan. I live in AZ. I just bought my first BMW yesterday, 2/28/02, and a ti at that. I bought a 95' ti sport, jet black, with all the trimings. Akimoto intake, headers, and exhaust, Dinan chip, M-package (front spoiler, side skirts, mirrors, and rear bumper). I absolutly love it. This is my first German car. I have driven American and Japanese cars before, but this German made car is a REAL car. I just had a new stero installed so it is starting to have personal touches.

Who's next?

[leemur]

[ahutson03]

Hello!

I'm Valorie and I have owned a 1998 Sport ti for a little over a year. It's red and has an after-factory tailpipe, but no other mods. I live in the SF area and use public transit to work, so I rarely get to drive my baby.

Looking forward to browsing through the topics.

Cheers,
Valorie

Hello All,
I am 30 y/o BMW driver from SF. I own '95 Sport (Jet Black) //M ti(that's the bagging on it).
Non-stock: SuperSprint exhaust, DINAN chip, TRUST Cold Air intake, M3 rims 225-front, 245-rear both x17.
Driving every day from San Francisco to Sunnyvale and back (100mi rt), on hwy 280.
The car is great.

[1996 328ti]

If it's a 95 with ///M badging you probably also have M3 mirrors. Then you have a Club Sport. That is unless someone put the ///M-Technic trim afterwards.
