AUSTIN, Texas - Before, when 1989 was the year in the calendar and not the title of the album, I wanted to be seen in a convertible BMW. This was the last car yuppies.
Now it has aged yuppies, and gave BMW leads to all kinds of transport people to meet their needs. But still offers the classic yuppie mobile - minus a great phone 1980 car - in the form of year 2015 BMW 2 convertibles.
BMW 2 Series coupe and convertible are coupes and convertibles produced by the German automaker BMW since 2013 compact luxury. They are part of the line 2 of this series. Although he is the heir to Series 1 Coupe, which measures 02 BMW coupes succeeding in this sector.
The name, based on the 2-chain rationalization BMW model designations assigned odd numbers for sedans 4-door and even numbers 2-door coupes and coupe. M235i internacionalmente. </ P> <br />
<P> "> at the moment at all, 218d 225d 220D basic models, 220i, and occupies the first place among the BMW Group is internationally M235i.
New Simplicity convertible 2 series begins with a canvas roof with it. To anyone thinking of converting solid 4 series should note that the smaller the cheapest 2 series offers the largest trunk space with the top down and weighs about 370 pounds less. The rear seats fold down to create more space in the trunk. Will carry golf bags all others.
Higher electric publishing or down in 20 seconds, and the lines do not disturb the appearance of the body if the top is up or down, but still found a series 2 looks a little too tall and stocky, like a series of one it replaces. Was slightly longer and wider than its predecessor, but sitting next 2015 BMW X6 M, looks almost delicate.
Otherwise, this is much the same conversion Coupe 2 series that we've come to know and love. It comes in flavors such as: 228i four-cylinder or six-cylinder M235i, with either rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive is optional. (And AWD is not available with six until the summer.) It also can convert M235i be combined with manual transmission from a six-speed, which was not presented in any convertible 4 series.
We set off on the 228i rear wheel drive equipped with the optional sport suspension. -240 Horsepower turbocharged engine, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder BMW has no problem getting up to speed us, but we wish it seemed I do a little animation.
The rapid transformation of the ZF eight-speed automatic transmission is built on a master's degree in addressing the powerband something with this engine tops. We have experience of one year with a manual transmission BMW 328I leads us to believe that even if volunteered stick cylinder four years, the automatic will be the right choice.
Roads in this part of Austin is very straight for our liking, but still able to appreciate the untold BMW feels it must be looked for decades so incredible. 2 Convertible feels solid, quite disturbed by the loss of her superstructure. Provides electric power steering natural weight and responses decent act. Of course, the sun shines and the wind in our hair.
Wind also in our ears, rear window and awkward it is difficult to raise from inside the car. Easier to press a button and raise well-insulated cover, which can be performed at speeds up to 30 mph.
2015 BMW 2 convertible BMW is not the last nor typical. Even line 2 of the series will be expanded soon to include the likes of the seven seats, front wheel drive. But this car is still the core BMW, which reminds us, even in a short drive, why do we love this brand in the first place.
