The last M3 carried a 300-400 lb. weight penalty in convertible form, and lost a lot of structural rigidity.

My answer to coupe or convertible is none of the above - I'd take the sedan.

IMO, if you want a convertile 3 series, forget the M--just get the 335 and give up on racing/tuning it... spend the extra on a track toy

The 335 convertible looks like ass with the top up and I'm guessing the M-vert is getting the same roofline. Coupe ftw.

Sedan. But, I'd take a wagon over all of 'em if it was offered here.

the convertible looks like a regular 3 series with larger wheels, ..yet the coupe looks so sinister

my vote goes to the coupe

Get the sedan and buy a 12 000$ S2000 for the nice summer days.


Best of both worlds.

I like the idea of M3 coupe or sedan and have a real vert like a S2000 or Miata or MR-S on the side.
