Nope, I am very happy with my Misano Blue/ Ivory combination.

By the way, it had 19” Continentals and not the 19/20 Michelin combination.

The highlight of my visit after I purchased a BMW Platinum extended warranty was looking at a 2025 M4 CS coupe in Riviera Blue that was absolutely stunning!

I’d be mildly scared to Parallel park it

Saw 3 today within an hour, drove past a white M40i in Surfside gave a wave but no acknowledgement back. A red SFR 30i in Myrtle Beach and a Misano Blue parked at Mellow Mushroom pizza a street away.

Nice sighting, but to be picky, Flomaton is in AL not FL. It is just across the state line, but Florida has enough issues without adding some from Alabama.

And the top up thing is all too common. I typically see half the convertibles on the road with tops up on beautiful days.

I like the black wheels on my Misano Blue, but this look is also growing on me.

As a Florida resident I know it can be very uncomfortable to drive with the top down on an extremely sunny day in 80+ weather, especially if the humidity is high so please cut us some slack. 😎

No slack this time of year. The humidity hasn't hit summer levels yet. It's been pushing 90 the last few days around here and it's still comfortable in the car top down.

From about the middle of May until sometime in September you won't find me with the top down in the afternoon. The humidity is bad enough, but the sun makes it brutal.

I didn't buy a convertible to drive with the top up. But I'm not a masochist.

I saw an SFR s30i southbound on US301 in Riverview today. He had the top down. I was in the X5 coming back from Costco.

Took this on the weekend before last. I hadn't seen the Z3 until I turned the corner and saw the empty space next to it.

Top down in the morning and at night is where the magic is

When the temps are right! LOL. Still just below freezing in the AM here. But warm this weekend, I think I'll be bringing my kiddo to gymnastics in the Z4 and maybe even top down on the way home.

Thanks for correcting that one! I was bobbing and weaving all over those roads to get to I65 so I lost track of where I was half the time!! LOL!

LOL! Very true! I really prefer top down driving in the evening when it’s still warm and the sun is low or down.

However, on the day I spotted this one there was 100% cloud cover to go with low humidity and warm temps so that’s why, in jest, I was throwing some shade…

That’s the interesting thing with blue cars, I think they look really good with either color wheels. Yours looks great as the trim is all black too.

So true! Nothing better than a hot night with the top down and no need to worry about absorbing the sun’s pain.

Misano Blue S30i here in Carolina Forest area Myrtle Beach Dunkin Donuts. It has front lip and rear spoiler extensions. Looks good with the standard black top and black 19’s.
