For the lucky people old there who are in the market for a new car (which means they at least have a little money), then if you wait a few extra months (early 2008 for the lucky people in the US) the new BMW 1-series convertible could be a nice little weekender. The new convertibles from BMW will come in 2 flavours, the first being a 215 HP 128i and the second being the 306 HP 135i. I could go further into how hawt they are, and how many little features they have added, but the Autoblog article has the original press release.
