Red face Question for 2011 Convertible Owners

Hello All --

As you can see, I have a 2008 135i Convertible. It's been discussed and mentioned before, but the visibility with the top UP is horrible. And by horrible I mean absolutely terrible!!! ) The blind spot is huge and in my opinion, is a little unsafe. For that reason (and others of course) I drive with my top down 95% of the time.

My car is currently for sale and when it sells I am looking to get a new one ASAP....

My question....I am strongly considering a 2011 135i convertible. Can owners of this model specifically please comment on the TOP UP visibility? The dealer here doesn't have a model I can test drive. I know the exterior mirrors are larger than in my 2008, but other than that, has BMW improved on the blind spot/visibility???

Please let me know.....thanks in advance.
