<buying 318is>

Thanks for all the replies to my buying wohs.  I've decided to walk away 
from this deal and call it a learning experience.  I will call 'Pat' and 
ask for the money (and give him an ear full).

On the brighter side, I'm in the final stages of nailing a deal down with 
a different 1992 318is with only 50,000miles.

It is red with black interior.  Has original wheel plus BMW chrome 5 star 
rims, new tires, new 'head' or 'profile' gasket (owner just had it 
changed), no bubbling, no gap, no accidents.  The only re-paint on the 
car is the hood which was repainted by BMW because of stone chips.  The 
owner says it's a perfect match.  The car is being checked out at a 
dealership as I type (or is it 'as we speak').

The owner was asking 14,900 for it, he said he'd settle on $14,000.  

So, if every checks out, I'll be flying out tonight and picking it up 
tomorrow morning and spending Friday driving it back (9 hours) instead of 
working (oh, that sucks :) 

Anyway, so fellas, expect new owner questions from a long time BMW owner/fan!

Regards,
David
