IMHO it looks better in the metal then in photos - there was a 335 and 325 at the Melb Motorshow....and I thought they looked better with the roof down. But I'm not a great judge, as I'm not a convertible person.

astra · 03-10-2007, 06:37 AM

from the pics i have seen so far, i am not a fan

i am dissapointed

i originally was going to wait for the new vert to buy, but i am kinda glad i didn't now...

adriant · 03-10-2007, 06:40 AM

You should probably head down to your dealer and have a look in person. You might be pleasantly surprised. They should start appearing at dealerships soon. I'm sure BMW were talking April deliveries.

astra · 03-10-2007, 06:58 AM

yeh i have my name down for a drive of the 335 when it comes in

i agree, i hated the look of the folding hard top. It doesn't look like a perfect coupe when its up. The Volvo have perfected both the cabrio look and the coupe look in there C70.

adriant · 03-10-2007, 05:46 PM

The Volvo C70 is actually a good looking car - pity it's a front wheel drive really.

Looks out of proportion.

VGR00 · 03-10-2007, 09:00 PM

I saw it in the flesh at the Brisbane motor show and it looks great and IMO, better than the photo's. Don't forget, a lot more enginerring effort has to go into a metal folding roof and I'm sure even then some compromises have to be made for function over form.

astra · 03-11-2007, 06:35 PM

they could of saved themselves the the "extra effort", and put it into making the car look better...

funky_chilli · 03-12-2007, 09:30 AM

i saw it in the flesh at the melbourne motor show and it looks all right - better than the photos

i think i might stick with the hard top tho - as i'm not really a convertible person...but now as all the companies are making hard top verts, it's making the switch tempting

astra · 03-12-2007, 11:09 PM

bahh, when everyone goes hardtop, i will go back to classic cars

moO moO nEL · 03-13-2007, 02:04 AM
