Things gone wrong: sticking hood on occasions, slight water leaks between hood & top of the A-pillars, air conditioning not working (not yet fixed, but who cares when the hood is down?)
I've owned my 1996MY E36 Evo convertible for a year & I'm still enjoying it!
Having previously owned E36 M3 coupes (3.0 then 3.2), the most noticeable difference is the inferior ride & handling. It's still good, but the reduced body stiffness is very noticeable. The performance is still great, albeit 9/10ths of the coupe. The dynamic trade off is more than worth it when the hood is down on a hot sunny day! I'm averaging 27MPG, which is good considering it's performance potential. I keeping hold of it until E46 M3 prices drop to my level. Overall a great car!
Good comments, I'm currentley looking for an m3 conv having sold my skyline gtr which had 400hp hope the m3 goes as good as they are supposed to.
You sold your "400hp Skyline" for a car you hadn't even test driven, and by telling us the horsepower of your previous car it seems you are implying that you may know how many horsepower an M3 is, which you know is less.
Probably won't go as good.
