common misconecption more than anything...

the labor rate at bmw is $95. Most other places it's $80. so, you're looking at $15 an hour extra for work...
parts are pretty cheap for the m42/m44 engines.

Oh wow, good to know, thanks. I'll keep an eye out, but the problem is that I need to sell my car after I buy one. Good idea to buy, but the last thing I need to do is try and sell. I've been looking for something a little more fun to drive, but it's not necessary and I'm trying to fight the urges. Then again, half the shit anyone has isn't necessary :shrug2:

thats stupid.
why would you not want to afford it?
just cuz you can afford it doesnt mean youd have to buy it..
you could buy something else.
 
It sucks that those cars arent popular here.

but you guys do see the reason why i'm considering this car right? car for the price is just better than anything else i have seen. really i'm only considering it because of the 6 speed LS1. if it were any different i would absolutely hate it.
 
they aren't popular, period! lol they are hard to find. production is very limited.

Introduced Stateside in January 1995 at $19,900, the 318ti Compact sold best in 1996 ($ 21,130) at 7,238 units, slipping under 4,000 U. S. sales annually in 1998. 318ti sales measured in mere hundreds (656) for 1999 at $23,870 a copy.

ohh i'm looking for that 318ti here in Tally. sucks that i cant get what i want but the good is that it would be paid for if i do get it. well paid for in a month or two until i sell my truck. i'm gonna look at today around 4:30.

i'm still looking at craigslist,tamparacing and other sites to find a nice cheap daily. I just dont want to wait until i get more money saved up because that will take at least another year. The winter slowed the side jobs and any other chances of making quick money to save.
 
6spd LS1 Camaro? Whats wrong with that... I would rock that. Slap a ATI Procharger P-1SC @7psi and you'll be at 470+ RWHP!.

i thought about a turbo charger and have nice setup. BUT i went to look at it yesterday with the wife.
It was touched up painted in the front.
headlights were different shading so it might have been in a small wreck once.
The rear quarter had a nice vollyball sized bang. not a dent but a crushed indention.
The interior was really worn,
panels were very plain,
dash cracked,
squeeled and clanged when i drove it.
rear passender tire scrubbed on stock wheels. :huh:

very beautiful color outside. when i pulled up i was gonna get it. not until i drove. It had the torque but you could feel it was hauling alot of weight. 1rst gear was pretty slow when i tried to give it some quick acceleration.

i'm not getting it. Nicole actually liked it too besides the damages. I want something compared to my crx. i want it to compare in response and gearing. i think i'm gonna keep saving more money until i find the right one.:(

this is what i'm looking at right know...

lol whats the lil thing gonna do with 500hp? But wow this guy has done a shit load of work. How much is he asking?
 
are we the only ones online today?

check out centralfloridaturbo.com. (CFT) they build some of the fastest car in FL. check out the video's of there cars in the 10's and 9's.

make sure you look at the video of the CFT integra walking all over a viper.

of course i dont think i'll ever use those ponie's hell i might not ever take it to the track. its a nice car. but i would be fun on the street and on the highway. which is where it counts in my book. FWD street cars suck for drag racing

Yeah but your talking gutted out race built cars vs cars off the show room floor with full interior and radios and AC.

Those lil civics and tegs could not pass emissions lol nor can you drive them on the road.
 
why would you want that? i mean, its a nice toy car.... but if you get it, you better keep the truck as a daily....
