MANY red/tan 1991 318is-s
 

I know the odds are nil, but I'm going to have to dig up the VIN of my old 1991 318is and see if any of the MANY red/tan 318is-s (that's my best guess at how to pluralize that) might be my old car. I'm struck by the absurdity of three of them on this board alone (between just two owners no less - yes, Alex, that is truly odd). But you all are making me miss my old '91 so I'd like to know that it's in good hands somewhere.

One of you has an active CarFax account, right? Once I dig up the VIN, can you tell me where it is?

Matt may have an active account.

You think it's odd to have two identical cars? Naaah. Now if it were 3.....

Wouldn't it be amazing if someone here had BOUGHT your old car???

We know that one of Alex's cars was from the original owner, and I believe the other was from CA.

Just saw this. No, I don't have an account. I did the $1.50 deal from modbargains at b-fest.

Plus, TD's had cloth interor, no? Non of ours do.

Yup. I had cloth.

None of you guys have cloth?!?!

BTW, I'm looking at the original window sticker from my '91 and the VIN was WBAAF9311MEE69974. Sticker price- $23,425 after dealer add-ons.

Why didn't you keep it?

I had had it for 7.5 years and was itching to drive something different.

I have the original window sticker to the 318is my son bought last week, and it was $19,985 before taxes and delivery. The only options this one had was sunroof and fog lights. And it's got the vinyl sport seats, not cloth. The vinyl probably will be around longer than man itself.
