Last month I sold my 1992 Honda Civic DX after being the original owner for 13 years. My honda had been coast to coast Redwoods to the Gulf! It was sad to see it go, but I had the oppurtunity to buy a 1995 318i automatic 1.8l, black w/ black leather interior in great condition w/ 131k for $5500. I've always driven a stick and really miss it, but the BMW is a well put together car. Even an automatic w/ 4 cylinders. Any US car with 4 cylinders will under perform this car in its class. Handling is great, comfort great, roominess great, car is slow to warm up when its real cold, stereo cd/changer can rock, comforable back seat ride, look like money in it... Even though the engine isn't that of a 6cyl or upper 3series models the 1995 318i has a great body. The newer 318i's look to much like a honda. And shzit I aint' driving a Honda anymore and never will again! I'm sold BMW and with 2 months of owning it, I've learned more about cars than at any other time in my life and I'm getting old.
I am happy with my purchase, however I long to buy an upgraded model such as a 5 series in the near future.

Interested to talk with anyone who owns a 1995 BMW 318i or has owned one. Please respond, thanks!
