This.

I hate when people love to point out M badges when they are coming from the factory like this now.

As long as it isn't M3 or M4 badging I don't see what the fuss is about.

If the sun is shining I might take the convertible! Beautiful cars!

It's shocking how similar they look. The front bumper on the 435 is nearly identical to the M3/M4. Both are beautiful rides, but if i had to make a decision, drive the M3 all day

Not a hard choice...I only see one fast car and one slow car.

Take the fast car.

Also the M badge looks silly on your vert.

That's a 430d, to be precise. See you ordered it without the badge, people don't even realize it's a diesel.

I would probably take the M3 because I think a convertible should rev a little more. Nothing against the BMW diesel, mind you.

Yeap, and we complain that the C63 looks exactly like a C300-450 AMG Sport, well it does...but so does ours to the non enthusiast.

Depends on what I'm driving out for, but the M3 is just waaaay more fun to drive then the fun I would get by just not having a top. M3.

Why did the dealer put on M badge on a 428? Seems silly and poserish. Go fast M3, all the way
