i acquired a 1995 ti in alaska blue from a co-worker, several months ago, and immediately sent it to the paint shop to have a full respray, m3 front bumper, M3 mirrors, and M3 side skirts installed. i also scored a set of M3 double spoke wheels.

it's been in the damn paint shop so long, that i've forgotten what the thing looks like. i was supposed to get it back from them in october, then november, december, and so on...

i cant bitch about it taking so long tho, because i'm bartering with the owner of the shop, and i'm definately getting the better end of the deal.

any pics of alaska ti's sitting on 17" M wheels, so i can get excited about this car again?

Ask and you shall receive. I bought this car from a guy in Maryland for $2500 about a month ago. The guy said it had a new paint job and he'd mail me the title and a set of M3 mirrors in a week or so. Just Kidding! This one just sold on eBAY for a little over 6 grand with a DASC.

damn I got my car painted and assembled, washed, vaccumed and a cherry air freshner hanging from the mirror in less than two weeks. there is no valid excuse for that. he better give you half off.

hahaha.. well, the work is in trade, and he's the owner of a very high production body shop. he's been doing the work on nights and weekends, when he can... but, he has a wife and 5 kids. so, that will certainly slow things down for anyone.. i have a wife and two kids, and i can barely manage time for breakfast.

Not true. Offset is everything, look at Paul's Dakar M3, 17 x 8, and he needed to flare the shiet out of his fenders to fit the wheels.

Why you have to sell it? Can't you use it over on the west coast? If not then sell it over here on the east coast before moving. It will save you a little $$. :eek:

definately..

im selling it because i have too many damn cars, and the wife is making me pick two to bring.
im pretty attached to my E30 325is, and my vintage fiberglass VW dune buggy, so those are coming with.

im selling the M3, the ti, the E21, the 74 nova ghetto hooptie, the 72 chevy C-10 rat rod pickup, the other dune buggy, and the vespa scooter.

95 ti

Aren't you the member who posted on 318ti.org saying you had a custom turbo in your ti and said you'd post pics of your setup then you never returned to the site when they called you out on you bluff/lie? Also selling your Jaguars and Benzes but you still drive a ti?
