Very German review there, I like his attention to every detail.

This is a great looking convertible. Better than the coupe where the passenger dome is too small for the car.

looks good. Big car but pulls off the vert look very well IMO.

Great review! "convertible is safer because of better visibility without B-pillar" - great advice too!

I'm surprised the rear seat (leg room wise) is actually smaller than the M4 cab. (29.5" vs. 33.1") for a car that's longer in wheelbase and length.

Apparently BMW did good and it's very agile for a drop top.

Interesting. The car is longer, smaller and higher than an i8, very different.
Surprising how clearly he rates the 8 series rather to be sporty GTs but not true sports cars ("not for the track") due to the heavy weight. Remarkable from a german reviewer...
