The white convertible ... no question about it.

I'm from Europe, and over here the M3 convertible is a lot more exotic than the closed version, don't really like white myself, but with the black wheels it does look nice.

I know when you buy the M3 convertible over here you get the hardtop with it, does this also come this way in the US, I only see the canvas top on their site ?

I think that the grey one will drop in value more quickly than the convertible, and you can enjoy the sound of the engine much better with the top down, especially when driving through a tunnel ...

I say the grey one. The convertible I hear is not as good as the coupe. And I think it looks better with the black wheels. And I actually like the interior, unlike some of the guys here. Understated. As for the faults, well, you'll have to negotiate with the owner about those.

I think I would like to have the gray one, just with better matching wheels and tires. The interior isnt as nice as the white one, but its not bad.

I'd try convertable and coupe in some of the rental companys to see if I can live with convertable(as I have no experience with it) and then decide. Its not so worm overhere so here coupe is probably the only way but in Florida its a different story... I'd take coupe anyways

I'd take the coupe, I have an odd thing against converts. I think white converts are for women :lame: .

Someone said converts are more rare, not in Florida buddy.

The coupe would be more fun plus you wouldnt have to worry about replacing the top, which is not cheap.

Oh, and as for the tires, thats just an old wives tale. As long as the tires on the same axle are the same, it really dosnt matter. But whatever makes you feel more comfortable.

Whats the cheapest you guys think I could get the m3 thats listed for 28,800? I was hoping 25k, or even 26 would do.

The cheapest?

That will be the lowest price the seller is prepared to go to

Good point.

I know having the cash with you helps when buying from a private seller, but does that help with a used car dealership as well?

Ok so the dealer with the gray one wouldnt budge, so its out of the question.

It is now between the white vert and this one

I like the lower miles and I slightly prefer the coupe, but also the interior isnt in as good shape as the white one and the color scheme isnt as nice either.
