How are these as convertibles? My mom said she always wanted a convertible and I thought about the e93 but didn't know much about their top and how reliable they are. This is coming from someone who owned an e30 with a power top and went through the trouble of making it manual because it was such a PITA

There are a few old complaints floating around these forums, but not a whole lot. Seems the most complaints are from the non-DIY types as most mechanics don't know much about these tops and if they do decide to touch them, they want to charge a lot of hours for diagnostics and repairs. They're complex, and there are expensive parts that are hard to find, but it seems the things most likely to break are sensors or switches which can easily be cleaned/adjusted/replaced. Even then it's not all that common. Aside from the top it's just like any other E90, easy to work on and quite reliable when you don't neglect maintenance. |

If I'm buying a vert, it will probably be a soft top with a manual up down option.
