Don't get me wrong Id like to have that feature on mine, I think its cool
Agreed. Personally, I think BMW designers were too lazy assed to incorporate the new bootlid handle into the Roadsters. Such a shame...

Oh, one other thing... if you guys look really closely at the badges, they are all off level (by a few degrees). Thank the factory for that. Some aren't as noticeable as others.

Oh, and BTW, Josh49, if you even need any more convincing about an M Coupé, click my signature pic. Otherwise, CHOP CHOP!!!

I find this placing of the badge an interesting thing to research of why they are on different sides
