Why are convertibles compared to coupes? Sure, they are inferior to the coupe in every way - but the top comes off.  Apples and oranges.

I love 1 series convertible ..

Why mention the orange in the first place? It wasn't funny.....

I just drove a 2011 this afternoon. Earlier in the day I drove an Infiniti G37 IPL. There is NO comparison when you factor in the fun. I was hot on the G37. I think I'll be buying the 1 series convertible.

Not a good review - didn't mention the extremely hard suspension on the M sport or how it crashes over pot holes or how noisey it is, or how lacking the petrol engines are - all noise and no go - actually that was shown but not commented on. Not impressed for the money you can do so much better.
