$44K, nah, I'd get a new Z06 .. Scot can you hook me up with a sweet deal like that?

-

seriously I was thinking of the 135 vert might not be a bad car. I wouldn't buy one as my only car (IMO) verts not the best performance car platform. but for a nice sun-day drive with the family it'd be great or even the 128i vert.

I think the 335i vert is great except it weighs 2-tons (plus) which is a lot of weight for such a small car it's like weight of a big car.

BMW should've given it a retractable hardtop. The soft top ruins it.

If the bottom body line didn't swoop down like a fat belly, the 1 series would be doable. As is... it's just too ugly. Performance aside.

The 135 vert is one of those cars that I think looks not so good with the top up but has definite potential with it dropped. Given the weight/performance/price difference versus the 335 vert which is a gorgeous car with a folding hard top it make the 335 the easy victor in my eyes.
