Auto Express Car Reviews Text: Sam Hardy / Photos: Pete Gibson January 2007 Rating: Strengthening of the chassis and windscreen pillars has resulted in the stiffest open-top BMW ever... It's the big 'opening day' for the new 3-Series Convertible - the moment when BMW's first-ever folding hard-top takes centre stage. The fourth-generation model has ditched the traditional canvas hood in the search for better refinement, security and structural stiffness. With only Volvo's C70 offering a similar arrangement in the sector, it gives the newcomer an important edge over the Audi A4 Cabriolet and Mercedes' CLK. However, the new roof isn't the sole innovation. There are special heat-reflective leather seats designed to keep the cabin cool, as well as the firm's latest twin-turbo six-cylinder petrol engine. So is the new 3-Series Convertible the best drop-top on the market? Well, it's certainly one of the most stylish. As on the Coupé, every panel from the new nose to the A-pillar is different to the saloon. And with repro-filed bumpers, neat LED headlights - incorporating illuminated rings - and new air intakes, it's very sporty. It's the roof that's the real star, though. Made of lightweight body-coloured steel, it echoes the new Coupé when closed. However, the rear screen's more upright angle, plus a chrome waistline, ensures that the two cars look rather different. Raising or lowering takes around 22 seconds - all done automatically at the press of a button or by optional remote control - and its graceful movement is a joy to behold. Made of three separate pieces, which all fold on top of each other, its activation is sure to draw a crowd! With the top in place, there's lots of light, too. BMW claims the glass areas are 30 per cent bigger than on the old car, and it feels very airy. Roof down visibility is made better by the screen angle, and seating positions are optimised for the driver and passenger. Yet while comfort is excellent for those sitting in the front, only children and small adults will have enough legroom in the rear. That folding hood mechanism also takes up a lot of luggage capacity in the boot, plus it leaves the load area with an awkward shape. Roof up, there's 350 litres of space, and once it's down that falls to a mere 210 litres. A ski hatch means you'll get a set of golf clubs inside, and you can fold the backs of the rear seats down, too. But as with other metal-roofed CC models, the 3-Series Convertible isn't especially practical. That's it for negatives, however, because just like its predecessors, the newcomer drives brilliantly. Strengthening of the chassis and windscreen pillars has resulted in the stiffest open-top BMW ever, and the 3-Series feels rock-solid over bumps, showing no signs of scuttle shake. With such a solid platform, it's great fun through bends, turning in instantly, staying flat during high-speed cornering and giving excellent feel thanks to its weighty, accurate steering. Refinement is also superb. With the roof down, buffeting is minimal due in part to a removable wind deflector. And when it's up, the extra stiffness and sound-deadening provided by the hood's multiple cloth layers ensures the Convertible is as quiet as the Coupé. Performance from the 3.0-litre twin- turbo six-cylinder powerplant of our car was mighty, too, with huge flexibility, searing acceleration (0-60mph in less than six seconds) and a rasping engine note. The optional six-speed automatic gearbox was also very impressive, shifting smoothly and offering involvement thanks to steering wheel-mounted paddles. All this comes at a price, though, as the new model costs around £2,000 more than before. But then significant improvements have been made and the 3-Series Convertible remains the best to drive in its class. Its place at the top seems assured.

And it doesn’t ruin the car’s looks, either. Space in the back is at a premium – although no better or worse than in rivals – and the price for the range-topper is a hefty £38,000. However, with a fabulous driving experience, it’s still the best convertible on the market.

It was introduced in late 1990 (as a 1991 model) for Europe and in late 1991 (as a 1992 model) for US and Canada. It was the successor to the E30 3 Series and was eventually replaced by the E46 3 Series in 1998, though E36 coupes were still produced for the 1999 model year. The E36 experienced enormous success in the market. It laid strong foundations for the success that the BMW E46 experienced in subsequent years. Also known as the "dolphin shape", the E36 was sold from 1991 through 1999. All E36 saloons, coupes, and station wagons employed the "Z-axle" multilink suspension in the rear which had been proven in the Z1 . The hatchback body style, known as the E36/5 or BMW Compact , was identical to the regular E36 from front bumper to A-pillar . In order to save space due to its truncated rear end, the Compact used a rear semi-trailing arm suspension based on the old E30 (also found in the Z3 and M Coupe ), instead of the Z-Axle Multilink employed in all other E36's. In the United States, the four-door E36 were on sale by fall 1991, while the E30 coupes were retained until well into 1992 when they were replaced by E36 coupes. The E36 convertible was delayed until 1994. The hatchback body style, known as the BMW Compact , was introduced in 1995 starting with the 318ti, being very popular in Europe but largely unsuccessful in North America. The "Touring" station wagon was sold in Europe from 1995, but was not available in the United States. DOHC engines were used across the range (except in entry level models, see table below), with VANOS variable valve timing introduced in 1993. The 2.5 L M50B25 used in the 325i models was replaced in 1996 with the 2.8 L M52B28, creating the 328 line. Another 2.5 L I6 engine, the M52B25, was reintroduced for 1998 but badged as the 323i rather than 325i.

This platform is often referred to as the E36/5 . In the United States / Canada market the car was sold as the 318ti and was equipped with a 1.8L I4 , 139 bhp (104 kW; 141 PS) M42B18 engine and was priced at USD 23,000 in 1995. In 1996 the 1.8 liter engine was replaced with 1.9L M44B19 putting out 142 bhp (106 kW; 144 PS) and 133 ft·lbf (180 N·m) of torque. Ostensibly due to slow US sales of the E36/5 Compact, the E46 Compact was not sold in the United States. A modified version of the E36 platform designated as E36/7 was used for the BMW Z3 roadster in 1996-2002. The modification for the BMW Z3 Coupe was designated as E36/8 . Even though the BMW factory was producing its own E36 convertibles, the Baur "Top Cabriolet" conversion was still available, possibly out of respect for the long association of the two firms.
