Is it just me or is that hot?

i wonder if they are going to do it in turbo again?

only thing i dont like is that H U G E damn gap between the tail lights and theb boot lid, its like u could park a Smart ForTwo in there!

Have to agree totally here.......

This is the car I'm waiting for and I think they'll definitely do a turbo, however what Australia will get is a big question mark.......

With the TS model we only got the star silver and black ones for a limited time only, who knows what we'll get with the AH model.

I'm hoping for a VXR/HSV version, if so I'll replace my TS model turbo convertible, if not I'll just buy the VXR/HSV hatch and keep my TS turbo convertible.

If you're registered with autoexpress.co.uk, you can see a 'spy' video they had of the twin top's roof working.

oh yeah, here's a different interior shot -

looks better than the tan and woodgrain in my opinion.

I think it will look the best in black, navy or other dark paint because the twin top's rubber seals show up on the lighter colours.

is that a push button start in that interior shot? See just to the right of the steering wheel?!

Great shot - BMW have the exact same colour leather as an option on all their 3 series and call it Chinamon.

I checked out a black M3 Coupe with this colour inside it and let me tell you it looked mad, as in really nice.

A black AH hard top convertible with that interior will be a sexy machine indeed.......

What's up with the little white lines in between the door and the front wheel arch? Are the door hinges visible as well due to gaps or are they jpeg artifacts?
