I had one when I lived in Germany and it was my only car! It didn't leak either! But it was also 6 years old at the time! But this past September, I bought a 25 year old. It's been pampered the entire time! And I bought on the east coast! Now it sits around in my garage waiting for sunny days!
Nice video! Lots of good points. We’ve had our 99 323i vert for 6 months now. Previous owners had it for 17 years and always kept it garaged, so leather is still great. We keep it under a waterproof car cover and use it as a weekend car. Love having it, never had a convertible before and the e36 chassis makes it so much fun to drive
That's how it was with mine! The first guy leased it for 3 years, the serving guy has it for 18 years, traded it in on a car for his son, then they dealer kept it indoors as a show piece, only driving it occasionally! Then I bought it!
i just bought an e36 325i convertible as my first car. I will be doing my first oil change on it tomorrow and going to move up on doing diy maintenance to the point where i feel comfortable to change the soft top
@@sibusisoprince. i sold it for $17000 after a complete restore. bought an m3 for $6500 and doing it all over again. Its silver and now looking for a hard top for it
El primer y único video que dice realmente como es tener un convertible, excelente información, me gustaría que hicieras un video explicando cual seria para ti el mejor convertible
Good video, was thinking about an E36 M3 convertible but now I’m seriously reconsidering that choice. If I can get it cheap enough I might still but I’m definitely having my doubts after watching this. Thanks!
Hey man!! Just found your page after I recently acquired a 1994 318i convertible, and have crazy wet interior problems. Can you post a video on the drain points and how to access/ clear them so I can stop this flooding??? Love the page and all the videos you make🙏🏻
I have a 97 328iC Convertible identical in color to the one you are sitting on, and a New Convertible Top will Run about $2100 installed here in Florida , IF, there are NO BAD MOTORS
Hey, I'm in NC too btw, 99 e36 323i mine doesn't have the automatic rollover bars that shoot up. What's your opinion on safety if mine were to rollover?. I wouldn't be from my driving which is very safe but a chain reaction or something and me winding up flipped over all of a sudden...thanks
Hey Ethan quick question for ya. I just got a scrapyard e46 triangle steering wheel and i want to know what it takes to put it on my 98 318i. I know the airbags are different but are there ways around it

Thank you. This is the video I was looking for. I don't wanna buy convertibles anymore. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN 👏😮
Amen to that. I bought my second one now and it is a secondary car this time...

I feel like you just convinced me to get an m240i over z4 m40i as a daily with no garage
4 year update, I would never get another convertible unless I have a garage hahaha
Thanks for the information

My brothers i nid to help lisen the car when it is cold passes in front and when it is warm it does not have gas it is confused
i might buy an F30 m240i convertible to use during med school this coming fall as a daily driver. not so sure if that's smart.
I'm not getting one as a daily. It's going to be for the weekends or special occasions. It's going to be paid in full.

The vert is the best looking e36
great vid
Dababy wants to know your location.
💔 I really wanted one…I guess not thanks for the advice
If youre a hillbilly dont buy a convertible 😂
