Seeing that i have a 318i BMW...the crappiest vehicle BMW produced lemme give u a few specs first...
Horsepower: 138
Torque: 133
0-60: 8.8 (now that the car has 155,000 miles... around mid 9's)
Quarter Mile: ? (it would take to long to time)
anywayz...seeing that i have a 318 BMW...pretty much almost any car could beat me...so i tend to pick on wannabe tuner civics (u know the kinds that have the huge coffie canisters in the back) or corollas, pretty much anything thats as slow as me...anyways...lemme continue on with the story, i was coming from a persian party (O YEA!!....bellys dancers, persian techno, the whole deal) and i was headed down the 57 around 1 30 am... traffic was pretty light so i thought...i should unleash the raging power of the almighty 318...btw the limiter on my car is 110 mph [dunno]... so i was going down the highway going 90 mph...not to fast...not too "illegal"... and i notice a corolla with HID's...well actually they wernt HID's...they were those bulbs painted blue that u can get from Wal Mart...anywayz..i notice a corolla right on my ass...so i let it pass and see a blonde in the drivers seat...so like a dog in heat i chase...we race for a good 3-4 minutes and pretty much the whole time..i was beaten her....so...kill for me ...we slowed down to about 70 mph she rolls up next to me...turns on her light in the car...and to my surprise what i thought was a cutie was actually a oldie.... 40's to 50's...i quickly speed away...she got off at the next exit and i continued on my way...i was gettin close to home and i see a mustang gt....yes the infamous mustang gt...and get right next to it...challenge it to race...anddddddddddddd.....i get my ass handed to me....hey...it was still fun.....anyways..i thought id let u guys hear about my kill and me gettin killed.... [V] i hope i get my G soon.... hopefully in a month or 2....
BTW.... if u guys/girls are ever in the So-Cal area....and u get challenged by a 318i...its me....dont waste ur time...
I humbly disagree that the 318i is the worst BMW has to offer sudz.
I believe the title goes to the 318ti, the one that BMW forgot to put the entire trunk on the car (just half a trunk).[V]
I don't know too many people who want to test the "how long can the BMW last." It just seems that it'd end up costing an arm and a leg to maintain any BMW past 5 years. The repair & maintenance are just too high and will end up gnawing on your wallet.

LoL Gzire...the thing with sudz 318i is that he doesn't spend money repairing and maintaining it...yet it keeps chuggin and chuggin. His tires are soo bald the metal shows, have needed replacement for 2 years, he ran his car without and intake for 4 months through a crap load of dust, and this summer he did a crap load of mountain driving with high rpm loads, yet..this car still keeps movng. We have yet to seen the day that the car won't start and still have yet to see the day when it has actually gotten a major problem. Its amazing this thing even runs...and even more amazing that its a bmw....
Boggie, I'll bet you the second sudz tries to get the engine up to speed through maintenance is the day the car will up-and-die.[lol]
If you know him, you'd better get on his ass about changing his tires. Steel bands showing through (essentially no) tread is not safe. No change in tires might equal a trip to the hospital (if he's lucky).

I've been talking to him about them for awhile now...its been like that all summer...because he was mountain racing/driving. Hes getting new tires thrusday.
Knowing bmw...if he does fix the engine something like the trans will go out...I swear to god they rig their cars to make big dinero.
