BMW 3-Series Convertible (07 on) - Review Review by David Ross on 26 March 2007 Last Updated: 25 January 2010 The 3-Series Convertible is undoubtedly one of the most desirable models in the BMW line-up. It combines effortless elegance with everyday practicality and an exciting drive - in fact it is one of the finest drop-tops on sale today. The three-piece electric metal roof folds gracefully in 25 seconds and is a very compact design. That means with the roof up, it looks like a coupe, and it retains the smooth shape associated with previous 3-Series Cabriolets with the roof down - there's no 'bump' that has marred many other coupe-cabriolets. Further innovations such as heat-reflective leather upholstery and easy access to the luggage area show great attention to detail and add to the premium feel. Punchy engines and a high spec (all have at least SE trim) are the icing on the cake. 4.5 out of 5 Other BMW reviews Summary Facts & Figures Equipment Driving & Performance Comfort Costs Safety & Reliability Buying & Selling Also Consider Company Car Info Owners' Reviews Gallery Also Consider 4 out of 5 Volvo C70 Coupé Convertible (06 on) Understated styling, modern and stylish interior, neat folding metal roof Tricky boot access with roof down, lacklustre handling, pricey Read full review 4.5 out of 5 Audi A5 Cabriolet (09 on) Elegant styling, very refined, decent boot space, strong performance Limited rear passenger space, expensive optional extras Read full review 4 out of 5 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet (10 on) Classy styling, impressive refinement, clever AirCap means open air driving without the buffeting, excellent diesels available Lifeless steering feel, AirCap looks ungainly when raised Read full review Find other convertible cars Car Valuations Find used car prices with Parkers accurate car valuations.
