How much are these pads? I might go order some...

It's been awhile so I forget. Plus my buddy got them at a discount since he has a shop. You can probably check w/some of our sponsors here on E90post. I'm sure one of them can hook you up.

Sorry for going off topic, on with the Convertibles...

Here's mine - It had a recent flash and now I have the dreaded lag problem. The lag is so bad that it reminds me of my mother-in-laws old Saab 900 turbo convertible - so much for progress. I can't wait until the lease is up in June.

Deda · 10-18-2008, 03:44 PM

Here's mine. Montego over Saddle...love the combo

Wheels are DPE S20, brushed aluminum with polished lip. 8.5" up front and 10" in back.

Mr_D · 11-22-2008, 11:44 PM

Outstanding color combination.
Im interested in taking an E93 this coming year in a very similar color combo to yours.

darkphantom · 11-23-2008, 12:54 AM

Coral Red interior with:
black, space grey, white

Hmm...hate is a strong word, I'd say you didn't like the lines in the rear, because it just didn't flow well...most cabrios don't...=/

I must say however, sometimes I feel like I should've gotten the E92 because my car feels so heavy at times! I had 4 people including myself in it last night, I'd say almost +600lbs (that's 1k lbs more than an E92! 400lbs for the motors + the 600lbs for hte people) It felt SLOW -

but luckily the torque helps with that

bspears · 11-23-2008, 03:12 PM

I have had the car about 5 weeks and I love it. I am working on a review that I will post after I put a few hundred more miles on it.

NAL · 11-23-2008, 04:02 PM

I love it!!!
