Well huge letdown. I finally sat in one and it was a joke. I looked to the left and all I saw was headliner. The MAs laughed and mentioned it was like I was wearing the roof as a hat. Glad I saw it, but it ruined the dream. The rear storage is awkward to store stuff like golf clubs. Maybe I will get excited for a roadster.

Which is the same thing with less rear visibility.

Don't get your hopes up. It will also have less trunk space since its a convertible.


But thanks for offending other Coupe owners for calling our cars a joke? Sheesh :P

No problem, I had such a good amount of buildup it could not have achieved what I had built it as in my head. Then when my head didn't fit in the car I was bummed.

We'll obviously you have a head problem. I'm glad I'm not in your shoes or your head for that matter. But I will wave as I pass you bye in my JCW Coupe.

Bummer it does not fit for you. You still have your R56 right? Better than an Escalade.

Yeah, my wife drive my R56 right now ('09 MCSa) and I am commuting in the R50 ('02 5spd). I actually just got my R50 back for a tranny replacement. darn Midlands took a dump.
