Yuck, what an ugly convertible. I mean, as a coupe I can almost tolerate it, especially knowing I can be hidden by tinted windows and a low roof so nobody has to see who's driving. Plus, as a coupe, the value/performance equation is even better. As a convertible and everyone can see the Miata-on-Steroids I bought? Hmmm - nope. It's a ladies car...or men who have very little dogs with names like 'fluffy'.
If I were to buy a convertible, it would either be a less-powerful 3-series for the same price (much better looking), or the even-better-looking Audi A5 Cab. The 1-series looks like it got hit from both ends, then melted.
