Alpine White BMW 335i Convertible On MORR Wheels

October might not be the perfect convertible driving weather, but that hasn’t stopped us to look at a beautiful Alpine White BMW 335i Convertible.

If you’re adventurous enough or live in a warmer place in the world, then putting the top down is a must, especially when riding in style. This 335i Convertible also comes with MORR wheels and a few other goodies installed.

This particular Alpine White BMW comes with an open top and coral red interior that contrasts nicely with the paint job.

The stance has also been improved by lowering the car while improving the ride quality.

Wheels shown here are sized 20×9.5 in the front and 20×10.5 in the rear. Finish consists of a brushed aluminium centres and polished step-lips with a clear coat added to them.

BMW M4 Convertible Reaching 270 km/h

BMW headed over to Munich, Germany, to test drive and review the new BMW M4 Convertible. While putting the M4 Convertible through its paces on curvy roads and on the Autobahn, BMW decided to see if they could reach its top electronically-limited speed.

The video below gives you a look at the tachometer showing the 270 km/h mark, about 10 km/h lower than the advertised top speed which usually tends to be slightly lower. To capture the exhaust sound, BMW used another GoPro camera placed right above the exhaust tips.

The 2015 BMW M4 Convertible is powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six which makes 425 hp and 406 lb-ft. That’s barely up from the last-gen M3′s peak 414 hp, but up significantly in the torque department.

BMW M4 Convertible

Can BMW make the M4 Convertible to be as fun as its brother, the M4 Coupe? 

To find out, BMW took a trip over to Munich to sample, over a series of twistier and some high-speed cruising, the new 2015 M4 Convertible.

The M division sees the M4 Convertible as a car requested by a small, yet passionate and wealthy M3/M4 owners.

Immediately the M4 Convertible stands out with the typical M design cues: an aggressive front apron, the 3D shaped kidney grille with the M logo, the flared wheel arches and the iconic four tailpipes. Add to these the beautiful Moonstone Metallic paint from the BMW Individual catalog and some black wheels, and you have a looker on your hands.

Compared to the coupe, the M4 Convertible not only gets a retractable hardtop but also gets an additional 250 kilograms of weight for a total of 1750 kilos (3858 lbs). The three-piece folding metal roof can be operated at speeds up to 18km/h, an impressive engineering feature with a roof this large. It also takes 20 seconds to fully retract the roof, another impressive figure.

When the roof is down, you have the choice to put up the wind blocker (if there’s nobody in the back seat) and BMW now offers a first for an M car – an optional neck warmer. Furthermore, the wind blocker folds into a small space and BMW has thoughtfully given it its own storage area behind the folding rear seats.

One good thing about riding with the top down is the pure sound of the engine. Yes, it is not the V8 we all got to love in the previous generation M3, but the growling sound from the 3.0 liter turbo is satisfying for most BMW fans. 

Taking another lesson learned from the 4 Series Convertible by using a button on the inside of the boot lid which lets you lift the metal roof pieces up and down allowing for easier loading of things to the boot.
