If so, how do you like it? Would you say it is a significant improvement over its predecessor (a great car)? How would you compare it to the other convertibles in the segment: A4, C70, Saab? I LOVE BMWs!!!!!

I don't own one, but I've driven the 335i convertible a couple times, including an extended drive with both roof up as well as down.
My opinion: great car, new hard top means you can even use it over winter.
My only gripe about the car is headroom when the top is up. I'm only 5-10... but I felt like I'm almost hitting the roof. The black roof lining didn't help much... if I were to buy one, I would choose a light colored roof lining.
The 3 liter twin turbo is SWEET!! I love it.
Car & Driver compared the 328i convertible against Audi A4 2.0T, Saab 9-3 2.0T, VW EOS 3.2 and Volvo C70 T5 in their June 07 issue. rated the BMW #1 over the others in overall scores. The low points on the BMW according to the resuts were: rear seat comfort, rebates/discounts, and they commented on the BMW being the 2nd heaviest car in the whole group.

A bmw stays a bmw. Its more glamourous than any volvo or S4. If you go on Car2max.com you will see a video of an m3 against an S4. On straight line, the m3 beats the S4 even if the S4 had 2 more cylinders and more horse power. The bmw is 135Kg lighter than the S4. I haven`t talk of the volvo or saab as it is for me an outsider that should not be integrated to the same pedigree.
So in my preference: Bmw 3 series (best)
Audi A4
Volvo C70
saab 9-5 (least good)

the bmw 3 series convertible is very hot looking!!
:) i just love the way it looks, the body is nice to look at, very attractive looking!! so i would buy it!
i have a bmw 3 series sedan and the ceiling is kinda low even 4 me and im 5feet 4 inches tall! but hey put the top down on the convertible. i think this car looks best in either silver or blue maybe black. it looks ugly in white and red but thats just me. I hate those colors for cars! i know u said u love bmws but u might want to consider a mercedes- benz SL500 like a new one, now thats a hot hot car! This is a sexy car I wouldnt really say that about the bmw even though its very hot but this is a SEXY car! :) it looks very hot in silver or black is ok to. I have an SL500 but its old! its a 1993 but it looks very nice! the body on mine is very nice looking but the body on the new one is even better looking. They did an excellent job designing the new look 4 the SL500! but i like mine I do feel pretty cool driving it and I think people do give my SL a double take. so if u cant afford a new SL (yeah they are alot) get one like mine its a heck of alot less and u still get a hot look. u can get one thats like a 1998 for about 20 grand so its a pretty good price. I know a new bmw convertible aint cheap either but oh well so i hope this helps! and dont forget to listen My Chemical Romance while ur driving! this is a punk rock band in case u dont know who they are, im sure u do, they r very popular!

BMW cars has its own class.u will not regret buying a BMW.
