    Relax... they were only tucked under there for the photoshoot. I had put the seats and harnesses in that afternoon and didn't have a breaker bar to break loose the bolts in the stock mounting points. I'm quite aware of what the reprocusions are from running harnesses at the wrong angle. Thanks for pointing out the obvious. Speaking without knowing what the deal is FTW. YFF.

                All you need to look for in a 318iS.

                Lotta 318iS lovers here, including myself. They are slow as shit, but still fun, and easy to maintain.





                Don't be scared away by that second link, its merely a reference, but use it well.

                Car looks mint. I paid $2,750 for mine and its nowhere near as clean. As for GC, go to MPact Motorsports and they give you a nice setup. I have GC and I love it. Feel free to PM me if you wish.

                  i had a blast in my 318is, i have had 2. My 2nd ones odometer broke at 259k, and it was driven a few years after that. it was slow, but i drove it 18 hours straigh though mountains and down here in the heat, and it never gave me any problems.

                    Great price on an amazingly clean vehicle.

                    Snatch that one up!

                      For a driver?

                      Hey everyone, need some help if at all possible. I checked out a '91 318iS yesterday. I'm looking into it as a daily driver, time to start garaging my S4. This car has lots of potential as a daily driver. Slow as piss, but I'll have the S4 for the weekend romps. If anyone can tell me what to look out for or give me some pointers, it would be appreciated.
                      I know it's hard to resist modding these cars - but, putting a $3000 suspension that is ricer hell when driven on the street in a $2500 car begs a very obvious question. I have to confess that I am seriously considering unmodding my 318is except for a 1.5" drop and going back to the OEM basketweaves. A 318is is a fun car to drive that's easy to maintain.
                      Now you are no longer an E30 newbie.
