Pick up my car on the weekend

After lurking since christmas and slowly chasing a deal I finally got a great offer locally on an 08 135; trunk money just tipped it over the edge.

Cant wait!

Hardtop convertibles are heavy, expensive, and prone to failure with all the moving parts......softtop FTW

+1 on heavy and expensive but not on prone to fasilure. Kinematics aren't much more complex than a softtop one.

Its an auto; not tried the paddles yet. I have a fairly skimpy spec but it s the only 08 local that was a 135 with sports pack.

The paddles are fun, quick and easy! I like having the best of both worlds. Just make sure the have that storage tray pulled back in the truck before you put down the top. Mine was part way back and the top didn't close properly - FYI. It's suppose to be in the 50's this weekend in DC - so hopefully, I'll get some quality top down mileage in.
Happy motoring!
