Borrowed my friends 3.1 MP Canon camera and took some snap shots... enjoy!

Tell me what you think

looks awesome...just need a m3 front and some rear clears

Justin e36 · 08-13-2005, 11:38 PM

looks good.
my recommendation: do a regular e36 interior dashboard swap!!

M3 bumper is a must. Rear clears are a bit pricey, so i my just DIY paint them. (the oranage part red)

i love 318ti's! i agree front m3 bumper should complete the sexy look and then ur pimpin. To be honest the 318ti's the only non-m e36 i see myself owning one day.

great ride...keep it in good shape

another clean/somewhat easy mod to do would be to get the rear trunk handle thingy (thats black plastic) sanded down and colour matched...that'd look pretty hot i think

yep, a full M3 kit would compliment that very nice ... then maybe some euro wheels ... then some very low lowering kit ... then ... then ... hehe ...

HOLY SH!T i think i just came in my pants.....i'd take a 318ti with a s50 or s52 swap with bodystyle like qimis posted....over a stock e36 ///m

Thats sex on wheels. One of, if not my fav. BMW. Next summer I'll have the M bumper.. and as for the rims.. I want euro ones too, but not sure which would look nice. (sumthing not too expensive and sumthing with a deep dish)

car looks great as is. Only crit I have would be to close the garage door before shooting

I thought you were selling yours? Anyways, this weekend I went to Columbus to get DASC installed. The owner (Chris) wife has a DASC 318ti (M44). It has pretty much all of the supercharger upgrades on it- upgraded pulleys, filter, chip, and injectors, and larger PSI. It's a rare California roof edition with M Bodykit and LSD, lightened flywheel.

Chris is such a nice guy, and he did a great job on the install. I just have to pick up Koni SA's soon and my car will be pretty much finished.

I reconsidered that idea. I like my car too much to sell it, and besides if I did sell it, I would get another rare BMW. The problem is that arent that many other rare BMW's that are fairly new, and costs under 15g's. I'm planning to so a m50 motor swap in the future, which will hopefuly make my car a sleeper

A motor swap would be a great addition to a ti, but you never know what you get with a new motor. I just love the 4 cyl though! I get such a thrill driving the car at 5,000 RPM....with that SC whining, oh man. I doubt I would trade that feeling for any e36. Unless of course it's a highly modded M

If your Ti is fairly stock, try selling it, and get a 325... I just think as the e36 ages, and faster cars are coming out, motor swaps are getting less and less attractive.

Besides, did you check the gas prices nowdays??

Yes. I know gas prices are rocketing sky high, but I'd still take a Ti with m50 swap over any e36
