I actually have a funny story about that. I was in Santa Monica with my friends back when I had my 03 Mustang GT vert. and we were about to turn right on beach, and as I turned I just hear my friend as she creamed in terror. What happened was a bird just dropped a bomb, and it hit my passenger seat hard and splattered onto her face as she was sitting in the back.

I drive with my sunroof open every chance I get- It's so humid around here that it's often unbearable in the summer. Over the 19 years that I have been driving I have never had a bird poop through my sunroof. If it ever hapens I will probably freak out and sell my car... LOL!

well, bmw's really have no insteresting gadgets, the interior is so original and boring, but its so fast and drives like sex. the ride is the smoothest and the handling is really great. i don't even have a sport package...

so i think you said it backwards

You guy really need to quite drinking the kool aid from the worlds largest automaker. They make cars marked up 30% for their logo which alway seem to have huge reliability issues that other car companies could not get away with. The use tactics like this is a True German Muscle car and try to sell people that only the elite have BMW. Give me a break, everyone and their brother has BMW. I had to buy my wife one at one point. The fact that she could never drive it since it was in the shop half the time cured her of the issue.

BMW makes some good engines but they have blinded a lot of people with lies. Bimmer owners like to tell people that Lexus and Infiniti or all assembled in Mexico and that all BMWs are made in Germany. Does anyone want the picture of the big BMW plant in Greenville, SC?

I will say the personality of this car is completely different if you cut off the stereo, nav screens, turn off the air, roll down the windows and open the moon roof and just enjoy driving. There are not many cars that have such a drastic change in personality.

This loaner has been very nice but I keep putting my foot on a clutch that doesnt exist and cannot get used to starting a car without pushing on the clutch!

I find the backroads drivin around curves and such with the top down and the sunroof open to be quite enjoyable and relaxing. It is a nice way to wind down after a busy day!

On the 3 days a year we get sun, I'll always throw the top open.

Yep I totally agree on this point! I couldn't see myself spending that much more money on such a BORING interior with no personality. The exterior IS all that but the interior looks like a station-wagon threw up on it!!!!
