[QUOTE="han2u, post: 211972, member: 4998"] I had a 328i E36 cabrio, never parked it anywhere unsafe. Road and wind noise is not that bad and no leaks even in heavy rain. The problem is scuttle-shakes, drove me nuts. It has more features than the local saloon version, like full OBC, electric sports seats and 5-speed autobox. The back seats are not good for anything. My main concern was the motor mechanism that folds/unfolds the top. It sometimes jammed up on me, once during a sudden downpour right in town. Imagine the damn roof pointing up to the sky while you sit in the car soaking up the rain. Its something I would want to forget. Ironic, the weakest part is the softtop which is the whole reason for the car. Other than that be on the lookout for cats, they love to nap on your roof. Try removing cat fur from the softtop, bound to put you in a bad mood the whole day. If you are seriously looking for a convertible, see if you can get a spare hardtop. [/QUOTE]
