I think its missing something...........

Despite its current state being absolute shit, a tii for $6,900? Thats not bad at all, I think I hear vintage racer in its future.

I see they don't teach the whole identify your target thing in California

SMGs scare me........... a lot

Impractical, questionable styling, and very obnoxious. I WANT IT.

I actually know a guy who lives by me that puts his 5-7ish year old son in the back seat of his GTR

E39 M5, the later the better, the retail KBB on an 03 is $18k so if you buy one private you can get a good one for under $15k, 400HP, 4 doors, is there a better bargain, I don't think so.

I used to have a 72 Mach 1, I never preferred the looks over my 68 but I always kind of liked the odd look that it had, but in your picture you're right, that is disgusting

Thats pretty much my thinking, its not bad looking by any means but for me it just lost a bit of its sporty presence

Exactly, if you put a little into the car it makes a huge difference, they sort of addressed that with the sport models which had bigger tires, a lower ride height and good sized sway bars compared to the active and base models but at least where Im from ti's run very competitively in both G stock and Street touring

Fair enough, I love the little ti's, they're pretty much the perfect cars in my opinion. They're ridiculously practical for their size, get great fuel economy and are an absolute joy to drive. With that said I've owned an automatic active ti (kind of like the luxury package) and it really wasn't anything special, so

Yupp, thats working for me.

This shows that BMW still wants to make cars for enthusiasts, its just that their customer base has grown to outside of what it used to be so they've got to cater to whats going to make them the money to put the fun cars for us enthusiasts into production. So while they might have the atrocities of the GTs and all

I think it would've been a lot better, the problem that the 318 didn't really take off was because it was an "entry level" BMW and nobody wanted a 20 grand BMW, but when you look at it the ti wasn't exactly a flop either, it didn't create the demand expected but theres still 15 thousand or so of the things driving

Facelfited, subtle but in person its a big difference

BMWs facelift for the E46 coupe, they facelifted the sedans which turned out very we'll but then they went to the coupes and the result was meh, not bad by any means but it just seemed to lack the aggressiveness of the prefacelfit coupes. Pictured is a prefacelift coupe. Ill put a face lifted coupe in the comments.

318i or 318ti? The ti was the hatchback and the i was a sedan, the sedan and coupes were identical to the 6 cyl E36s (assuming your in the U.S.) but with the M42/4 engine. The i and is weren't anything to write home about but they weren't bad cars. The ti though had a completely unique chassis that combined elements

Emissions. Duh.

Werd.
