great combo a lot better than the awful platinum bronze

Oz · 01-08-2007, 06:50 PM

It looks like a big blue boat on the second pic. It doesn't look too great from this angle but I am sure this car will look great in person.

as far as color goes, the 1st pic shows the apparent rare capture of the "blue" of monaco blue.

Hawkshaw · 01-08-2007, 08:17 PM

Colour's not bad, but man, do I ever dislike the e93 with the roof down. Then again, I dislike pretty much all cabrio's with the tops down. I don't mind roadsters, but coupes with no tops seem past their prime.

Great color.

Just out of curiosity, to anyone who as ever owned a convertible, have you ever had a bird dookie in your car?

Joop! · 01-09-2007, 04:51 PM

Monaco blue does look very good: from almost black to almost bright blue (in the sun). Great!

3s-a-charm · 01-09-2007, 05:38 PM

Love the E93 in monaco! Might have to be my next car...

06330i · 01-09-2007, 07:21 PM

the first pic you can see the blue, the second pick it looks like its black........ not sure if i like this car though, ill have to wait and see at the NAIAS.

scubajag · 01-09-2007, 09:07 PM

Don't leave the top down under a tree for obvious reasons. Never had a bird relieve him/her self while I was driving with the top down. I think birds do not like to relieve themselves while in flight (too many other avionics to worry about)

TahoeOG · 01-09-2007, 09:38 PM

IT'S A 3 SERIES COUPE WITHOUT A ROOF.... What's the bad reviews for???? It's VERY IDENTICLE to the coupe only topless?????

You're right, but how do you guys feel about it with the top up (see below: comparison pic E92/E93)? (I've posted this on another thread as well). Frankly, I'm having a difficult time with this decision. Think the coupe flows better with top up, but will the difference really be noticeable in the E93 everday or only when directly next to a E92 ?

Chris.G · 01-10-2007, 05:45 AM

I love the e92 coupe, but i still cant get use to the cabrio.

I've had verts for the last 7 years and it's never happened to me, not even when the cars been parked for several hours with the roof down.
