Wonder what actual owners think - - is a 1M a good daily driver, or would a 135 coupe w/ M Sport Pkg. be better, all around, w/ features like a sun roof, folding rear seat, etc.?

I love having a sunroof.
But if I had a 1M I could do without it.
However, for a daily driver, and something not as special as a 1M, I HAVE to have a sunroof. That's one of the drawbacks to having a convertible.
It's the ultimate sunroof, but only on days when you can lower the roof.
The other half of the year, no sunroof.
Some don't care for sunroofs though, to each their own.
I'm sure the 1M is an excellent daily driver. Most reviewers and owners have said how smooth they are day to day driving, and it's only a beast when you want it to be. It's a pussy cat day to day and can roar like a lion and run like cheetah when you unleash it.
As the one poster said, it's more a question of whether you want a new 135i or a used 1M, cause I believe the 1M's have sold out.
