Alpine white convertible. She sent me a pic of the top down in the snow :) She is pretty cool for a 60+ year old librarian!

I have seen many 2-series coupes, and even a couple old 1-series convertibles, but I have yet to see a 2-series convertible. I bet they'd be fun though.

I think the convertible just came out recently. I took the m235 coupe for a test drive, and it was awesome. I have heard many good things about the 228i.

Haha, she is most definitely not a hipster, but she does like fun cars. This is her first car with a back seat in 20 years!

Haha, good deal. What did she have before the BMW?

She had a Z4, and before that a NA Miata.

Very cool! How much was it?

I don't know what they paid. MSRP is $40K + when you add a few options

She sent you a pic and you didn't post it?

Well she is in the pic and I didn't want to post it without her permission.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, has no one else noticed how great this car looks? I mean it just looks really crisp and well-styled, especially the headlights.

I agree - it's not ridiculously aggressive but also not a soapbar. I like how there is no side "boomerang" vent like on the 3/4.
