Nice. Saw a 328ci on gumtree a while ago as well. Before I bought my 328i Coupe.

For that kinda money I would rather buy a newer 330i individual saloon with less mileage.

But 2 doors are just better :rollsmile:

Problem is with two doors it is slightly heavier and is less rigid that the saloon.

and add not too much to that price and you can get yourself a pretty decent e46 M3, which is lightyears better than any other e46.

I would’ve thought that the coupe is stiffer that the four door and lighter as well (having fewer doors). Is it because the door windows are pillar-less?

You are right about the saloon being stiffer. But the 2 door Coupe is lighter.

Convertibles are heavier. People often confuse the word Cabrio (AKA Cab) for Coupe.

I don't think it is very likely that I will mistake a vert for a coupe :nonono:

Just had a look and as far as I can see on the e46 the saloon and the coupe are the same weight at 1505kg.

Either way no advantage to having less doors apart from looks and on the e46 the coupe for the most part doesn't look as nice as the saloon, especially not the pre-f/l one, the e36 is however a whole different story.

the B piller on the sedan stiffens it alot so the coupe needs extra bracing... thats why the chose the 4 door for the 320i touring car...

Coupe has a B pillar, Vert does not.
