Drives: 135i vert

I was one of those guys that said I'd never buy a convertible...always about performance and just plain looks. I've owned my fair share of "performance" cars and can say that the 135i vert is fantastic! I went into BMW looking to maybe get an M3...test drove one and was impressed for sure, but not blown out of the water enough to make me want to trade my car in for it...was intending to just wait for the new body style...my sales guy then suggests test driving the 1...I said what the heck I got time to kill...drove the vert top up and down and just really fell in love with the "Fun" factor it provided. I think PERSONALLY that the 1 looks great as a convertible...both top up and down. I really just do not like how the 3 series look as convertibles...awkward with the top up and just a little too long with the top down. Again that's my opinion. Also I still have use of a mini trunk with top up or down...the 3 has an equivalent of a glove box with the top down. That's my 2 pennies worth.
