<<<How ironic that its a 318ti another digester bought to be budget
conscious.  I had a 318ti that I bought new.  My first new BMW after 20+
used ones. What a thrill only to find the lousy build quality and
serious production flaws only a few days after the thrill wore off and I
took a close look at what I had bought.>>>

How many times have you written your rant about the ti now? Two, three?

<<<But the powers that be in BMWCCA refused to act on  this
later information.
     So after these nightmares and material harm of trying to go cheap
with bottom of the line, that's when I realized, "hey I could have
bought an //M3".  Because it wasn't just service and quality issues, it
was being subjected to just how far on the dark side some people in
BMWCCA will play and how far they will go to perpetuate reasonable
sounding lies over less realistic sounding truths.>>>

And WTF does the BMW CCA have to do with your purchase of a car?
I know plenty of people happy with their 'bottom of the line' ti.
I'm quite content mine. With +160K miles it still handles like a BMW.
