Just back from Geneva Auto Show

6er convertible is a stunning car!!!
In the metal, doesn´t look (to me) as big as some people have led me to believe...if they call it a boat, then a MB S series is Noah´s Ark!!
Like GreyCoupe says, it´s no real world 4 seater! Back seat is strickly for young kids (with skinny legs!!). Most people who sat in the car all wanted to try the back seat, and most came out shaking their heads,,,,Getting out from the back seat was another problem (with the canvas open), with the canvas closed, almost nobody ventured into the back seat! On the bright side, gives guys an excellent excuse to leave the mother-in-law home

Presentation color was BLAAAHHH,,,, in all pictures I ever saw, it looked goldish, in reality, it looks beige, with a tint of rose,,,blah!! When the black canvas is showing, then it´s acceptable,,,contrast is nice,,,, when retracted, almost couldn´t see the car with so many lights!!
About that exposed, forgot to include in the dash, nav screen, it´s not as bad as I had envisioned. I can learn to live with it!! Seen from the driver´s perspective, it´s acceptable (Audi A8 and A7´s screen,,,

)
No test drive possible, so, no comment!!

If there was a "private viewing area", to get a glimpse of the coupe, I couldn´t find it!!
I asked one of the BMW guys about the "Tri-turbo diesel" that´s in the works, and he didn´t know what I was talking about,,,so he said,,,,oh well!! Hey, maybe he was Scott and he recognized me for always asking about the tri-turbo

Nobody could tell me about Xdrive either, except that it would eventually become available,,,,so what else is new????
Overall, I´m delighted with the convertible, save the back seat leg room (my sons have two 320D coupes that sincerely have more space!!),,,oh, and I almost forgot,,,,the PRICE !!!!
OUCH !!!! As the saying goes: "You wanna play,, you gotta pay"!
