M3 E46 convertible

Hi guys

what is your take on convertible over coupe. Heard from 1 owner that the noise levels are high and that the roof makes a noise at high speeds. also road holding not as good.

thanks

Depends what you want it for

go or show??

 

[M3_devil]

will be using car on holidays possibly

Then the cabrio is no a bad option.

but will also be doing exhaust and software. occasional track days aswell

Cabrio is more fun but bare in mind that so is a sunroof and a cabrio is pretty much unuseable in mid summer as the seats get too hot and your head turns into cheddar cheese...

For pussy (or cock if you are gay) pulling cabrios are always better!!

But for driveability coupe is better - lighter and tighter

Matt, I like your style, no pussyfooting around...respect. :lmoa:

@M3_devil> Generally Cabrios are softer and Top speed is often compromised. Because of the lack of a roof they are also strengthened, which means heavier and thus handling is compromised - Basically what Matt said, just in longer words. You say holiday and track - Those aree two very different purposes.

So mainly track > Hard top, no doubt.

Holiday > Convertible, especially if you're on the hunt for meat :floggin:, as Matt pointed out.

I will have to disagree and say that the coupe is way sexier than the convertable
