    A real poser machine. This car came with full m3 kit from factory in techno violet - very eye catching.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good driving position, seats comfortable, but the leather doesn't last too long. More space for rear passengers than the e46 convertible model.

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0
