I hate this crappy trend of gear levers being replaced with switches. In addition to ruining the feel it also ruins the aesthetics. Why are car manufacturers doing this. A gear shift is supposed to feel significant, not like changing the music track
idk in my opinion gear shifters aren't what the used to be. it is all electronic. there is no manual transmission of linkage needed for the shifter so why not have it minimal and out of the way. Mercedes did this a long time ago. I still like this one. it does what you need and isn't in the way
Yes I agree , loved the electric gear selector in the previous year, short stubby lever you can push to the left quickly for sports mode and flip the leaver up and down to change gear. Although I do like the electronic stalk on Mercedes , it easy to use and tactile. But these little switches are crap.
Life hits you hard when you can actually afford to buy a 430i cabrio but as a married man, your priorities slaps you in the face... Buy a f.cking house first dammit..!
My anxiety on that 2 km range was out of control haha...
Very informative. Ordered it today 👌🏼

Hi, how is soundproofing when roof is closed, is it noisy, is there much deference between coupe and this convertible.??
not much of a difference but you can tell if you drive a cab and coupe back to back
thank you for response@@POV_Driving
My retirement car! I have an x5 now😎
I love this car
How about the isolation?
What do you mean?
I heard it s pretty good, that roof haș 5 layers of different material so it should make it pretty quiet inside
Is this the cheapest cabriolet trim?
No
Button are better than touchscreen
Don't forget knobs! Such as for volume on the radio.
