135i Coupe & Convertible Video

This is a video I took at the Melbourne Motor Show this year.
Its not very clear as it was the first day of the show and there were people eveywhere.
Sorry about the editing ,I am not very good at this.
The convertible is the 125i.. Ugly combo though.

It was the first day of the show at about 10.30 am and the kids were like ants..
The Salespeople couldnt keep up with them trying to get them out of the cars.
It was amazing how their parents walked around with their heads up their asses as the kids ran riot..

zuzu, do you know whether bmw did some work on chasis rigidity for the vert? i was watching fifth gear the other day on the telly and saw how alfa (no bmw of course) ruined the driving dynamics of the brera as a vert. that said, if bmw ever bring a 123d to our shores as a vert i'll jump at it as a twin for my car for my wife.

They would of had to some extent seeing the vert is 110 kg heavier than the coupe..
And all that extra weight has gone into the chasis and side frames to resist chasis twist.
