Really fast and fun convertible.

This car is a blast to drive and is actually faster than my 1994 Porsche 911. Handles great with outstanding brakes. Fantastic black and red leather interior,

'98 M Roadster, our 1st M

We bought this car for my wife and have absolutely loved driving it. Have went for a few drives with my buddy who has a 2000 Boxter. I can keep up and so he can he most of the time. On long straightaways I can pull away from him usually, his Boxter is a little easier to drive fast, but gives you fewer fun points being mid sized. The Roadster just has that beautiful rear wheel drive handling. Not as impractical as you might think. We can bring home a full grocery trip's haul no problem. Golf clubs and large luggage are about the only things that don't fit actually. Drive one, you'll be glad you did.
