I gotta say, that as much as I hate the looks of the new M3/M4, the convertible version looks much better to me. I think its by far the best looking version.

If there's room in the back seats, I may just take this over a Boxster GTS...

Having owned a 2008 E93 M3, I have to say I'm soooo glad they got the trunk sorted out this time. That new mechanism that lifts the retractible hardtop from the trunk vertically for access is brilliant, and solves my number one complaint about the previous car. That's worth the extra money right there IMHO.

According to the specs

BMW M4 convertible - 3900 lbs

is lighter than

Audi RS5 Coupe ! 4009 lbs

Which is an astonishing achievement.

SO leather looks better than SO paint.

MG is fantastic though, and really works with SO leather.
I have a feeling this color combo will be very common until the 2016 models come out with different colors.

^ +1 ... the new Porsche Boxster GTS
Problem with boxters is that they have 10 hp less than caymans

This looks SOOO good. I love the color combo. I would love to own a convertible, but I haven't been able to figure out how to haul my mountain bike around. Right now I throw it in the trunk w/ the seats down, but that's not going to work on this car. Maybe I need a rangie bike hauler?

totally agree - I'm not a fan of the m3/4 but this is fantastic ... also it looks like you can remove the rear headrests which would be awesome.

The front seats OTOH ... they're heinous. Good thing you won't see them much while driving.

I got SO interior for my M4 because the SO stitching contrast (with the full leather option) is DOPE. Subtle but DOPE.

Me too. In fact I placed my order for one last week, right before the Z06 Convertible was announced. I'll enjoy it for 5 years or so and let the prices normalize.
