| From badgerbimmers.org Member Cars 1998 318ti Todd & Renee Ciske are please to announce yet another Bimmer arrival to the BigBear Garage!! We recently welcomed a 1998 318ti, Jet Black with black leatherette interior, 68k miles, auto shift, heated seats that's completely original in great shape! The car came with the usual Chicago door dings and a bit of deferred maintenance- but is a fine example of the 1.9L handy hatchback. This is Renee's new daily driver with a nod to the excellent gas mileage (31 MPG). Upgrades so far are new 225/50 15 Khumo Ecsta 711 tires on hand-me-down 328i alloy rims (the 318ti came w/steel and hubcaps), BAS sport springs (3" lowering) and Bilstein sport shocks, rubber floormats, a set of angel eyes projector headlamps with integrated clear corner lights, and clear side marker lights. Nickname: "Shorty"
1997 328i Sedan Update: Upgrades include:
I have also picked up a set of steel wheels and Hakkapalita tires for snow season. My Field Report from last winter is that these tires combined with the BMW 50/50 weight split and traction control made snow and slippery roads a non-issue. Original: Just got back from a road trip to Minneapolis and I am so sold on this car...it truly is the 'Ultimate Driving Machine'. Wax On...Wax Off...
Todd & Renee Ciske are please to announce the arrival of a new Bimmer to the BigBear Garage!! A 1987 325is, Alpine White with black leather interior, 118k miles, manual shift, and completely original in excellent shape! The car came with a nice stack of service records, Bentley manual, and a bottle of Zymol. This is my new daily driver with a nod to the club Driver's Schools. Upgrade plans will first focus on the suspension and brakes.
