1997 318ti Active Package on BaT
-
You did A nice job presenting the car. I've always liked the TI body but I never knew they had any value over $5k. At the rate it's going my guess is $8200.
I appreciate the kind words Pat! I was expecting 6k, Not in the first 2 days though. So we will see where it goes.
If you think about it. Its harder to find a clean 318ti then a clean m3. The TI was an Economy car when new. This one had a sticker for 29k

If you think about it it's harder to find a clean 93 Corolla than a clean Turbo Supra...

I vote $12.5, on the expectation that BaT escalation effects will kick in. Keep on answering questions and updating pics. Add the typical BaT seller videos (walk around, cold start, drive with sweet exhaust sounds ).
Just added this morning!

I know someone with one of those

I had a super clean 94 with an exhaust. Great car until I put a rod through the block. We're talking about Corollas right?

Yessir. I think in general I've sent more clean Corollas then TI's but they also made millions of them in comparison.
Also I'll take $8700 Bob

I can't read the BaT comment without getting annoyed. Good on you for not losing your shit yet.

lol, You should see the facebook comments. I really wanted to lose my shit on the guy telling me my cars been repainted on the rear quarter but I had to hold back.
Stupid that I have to explain how Alaskan blue will change from purple to blue depending on the angle you are looking at and the angle the sun is hitting it.

Hang in there. The idiots will crawl out from under their rocks as the auction progresses.
It was crazy in some of the e30M3 auctions earlier this year. If you’d click on the user names of the biggest trolls with their “expert” opinions most had never bid in an auction or put something up for auction. It got so bad that BaT finally started deleting and banning posts from some of them.

The pattern seem to be either a) steady bidding followed by mad frenzy, or b) a first wave of bids-a bit of quiet-then a second wave at the end. The fact that BaT keeps on extending the 2 minute window at the end if a new bid is posted has changed the the whole old style poaching strategy. Might as well wait rather than show your hand though a big statement bid can scare folks off (for example if the next bid is $10k).
You've got several bidders all within range of each other, and the ti supporters are saying good things. Second wave should be fun.
Meanwhile we can wonder if the seller with the 1957 BMW 507 is worried over waiting to break $2 million?

So there's a lot of chatter on BaT but no bidding. If you can, you might want to post to gently nudge this back on track with something about how you appreciate all the interest, you're here to answer any last minute questions, love the car, looking forward to seeing this ti ending up in a good home, etc etc.

"I hereby attest to telling my friend @Achman that, due to my being deep in a “House” marathon (“everybody lies”), it would be funny if I ended the story that way even though I DID believe him, and that he DID actually say “I’ll take one for the team.” :^)"
what? yup, business as usual with the useless posts and trolls.
