Has any one driven, purchased or looking to buy one of these?

He likes the gearbox but loathes the convertible. But Autocar this week, and other journos, seem to like both the gearbox and the car.

Yep! And having driven it again today I stand by what I said. Maybe they didn't drive it down a typical undulating B road or didn't push it hard enough. Can't be a variance in cars because I drove the same car as Autosport tested. Just goes to show you need to drive and decide for yourself. I LOVE softops but STILL wouldn't choose this over my much missed coupe. Lovely car at 8/10ths - which I admit is how 95% of our driving is probably done but whats the point in an M3 if it doesn't follow through when you really go for it. Actually, as you were - it's horrid at 8/10ths on the wrong road. It even 'pogo'd' at speed on a bumpy bit of motorway. Yuk.
