In regions with dry tarmac, most drivers would prefer the agility of the lighter 2wd. Either one is an excellent driver's car.   Better bargain: R32 by a wide margin   If you can't wait for the R32, consider the Audi A3 Sport (unfortunately 5-door only in the USA). The VW & Audi are more economical than the BMW, more useable space, more practical, Bangle-free.

Replying to: fdg07 (Nov 06, 2006 1:22 pm) Assuming u r still in shopping mode, I would go for VW R32.   I have an R32, therefore expect slight bias here, but all in all, my R32 has always turned a bad/stressed/pissed-off day into a happy/cant-believe-i-am-alive/oh-God-this-is-so-good day.   I cross-shopped/test-drove the two, and I never regretted my decision. If you are into image, Beemer might do it for you. For me, the ergonomics, the exhaust sound, the crisp-shifter, the seats, the heart-throb, and lastly the FUN-factor topped the charts for R32.

#5 of 6 2001 BMW CI convertible by jeep53 Mar 19, 2007 (8:39 am)
Hi, all: Any repsonse to my question would be appreciated. I'm in the thinking stage of buying a 2001 or 2002 BMW convertible. They seem to really hold their value from what I've seen so far. Is there anyone out there that can give me their opinion about this car? I've never owned a BMW before but I really like the way the convertible looks. I want a convertible with a back seat, no matter how small. I've looked at the Saabs but I'm not too sure about their reliability.   I would appreciate any opinions anyone can offer about this car. Thanks for your help.
