This is some other person's video of the top going down. My car is just like this but it's blue and the steering wheel is on the other side.

Rain Man you should get a beater AWD Jeep or something to haul stuff and drive in the snow. You can get one from around 2000 pretty cheap.

I dunno. Having two vehicles is stressful. I never know which one to drive.

You crack me up. Roadster for Roadster, when the purpose was more room for wife's stuff. I guess if wife is down for it.......
WAIT A DARN MINUTE. I see what you did. Leave it to Rainman to be that clever. So, this is what happened. Rainman has a 14 yr old Z3 that he has owned for 12 yrs. He wants to upgrade into a newer, faster (even though he drives like a grandma), cooler BMW. But no way is Rainwife going to buy into this. She is going to say,"Rainman, you walk to work (1.5miles) and as a Rainfamily, we avg less then 1.5m/day. This car is paid for and you don't need another silly roadster. Besides, I would like a little storage for my canvases." Thus he plots and studied, pondered many polls. Thusly, this is where the plot thickens. Rainman can't confront Rainwife... Sooo, He pulls a fast one. On one of the rare occasions that they go to a Sams Club or the the grocery store and actually needs some space, Rainfamily rent a cool techy minivan. Of course this was diabolically planned by Rainman. Rainwife comments that after 12 yrs with a toy, and Rainman, yes you have had your fun, it is time to be an adult and practical. Rainman is now full on PR mode. "Yes Honey, you are prolly right and think with a trunk (a novel concept for Rainman) you can take your paintings. Yes Sweetie, we should go look for a new car (wink, wink)". OK, so Rainman has one hurdle down, the concept of getting a new car is BLESSED by Rainwife. He makes good that they look around a bit. But he has already scoped out HIS new car at the local BMW dealership. Unbeknownest to Rainwife, he has talked with the Manager and negotiated a trade in value of his old roadster and haggled on the price of the new roadster. All that's left is the Money Shot. As Rainfamily are driving around, he nonchalantly cruises past the BMW dealership where the new beemer has planted right out front. "Oh, Putzfrau, did you see that blue car over there? Let's just go take a look." He knows that Rainwife is a sucker for roadsters as well. "My oh my, will you look at that interior, WHITE leather and SUEDE. Oh, oh and look at this roof. It's a hard top that folds down into the trunk. Hey with this car, you can actually listen to the radio with the top up. Heck in our old rag top, it made so much noise no way was that possible. That's why we had such a junk stereo. This one has a Blaupunkt with 12 speakers. Yea I know, the top goes into what would have been a trunk. Trunks are way over rated anyway. Heck it's not like we don't have any space...there is the passenger seat! And, and, look how cool the top goes down. Boy those Germans sure know how to make a car. This baby is way cooler then those lousy cheap Miata two seaters. Now comes the Kill Shot. "Hey, kiddo why don't you take it for a spin?" GAME OVER and he still has his toy...a newer one! Gotta to hand it to Ole Rainman. Rainwife didn't even see it coming. |

Good luck selling your old one. Someone is going to get a good deal. Or you can just keep it. If 1 is good, 2 has to be better.

It took a lot of planning, but it worked like a charm. And now with that done, it's time to implement my plan to get her to ask for pizza tonight.

I've got it on cars.com for $8,900, but I'll cut a deal for a CP member. I've got some wiggle room and want it to go to a good home. PM me if interested. It's an awesome car.
