You need fun? This car is it!

2012 BMW 1 Series 128i 2dr Convertible (3.0L 6cyl 6M)
I wanted a convertible for the few months each year we get good weather, and I wanted one that felt solid--handled tightly, felt 'close to the ground' when maneuvering, and something that screamed high quality. I hit the jackpot with this car. Everything about it is well made, functions at a high level, and you will still beat everyone out of the intersections! Having this car has … been a crutch of sorts, in that when I'm having a bad day and get into this car after work, all is fun again.
Personal fun machine.

2012 BMW 1 Series 128i 2dr Convertible (3.0L 6cyl 6M)
Ok, this car is pure fun, but in full disclosure I still have a luxury station wagon in the garage for guests and trips to Costco.
Yes to celebrate my mid life and the fact that kid is out of the house I felt a red convertible with red interior would be a a great way to usher in this new phase in life.
The car is fun, interior refined, the deep purr of the inline six is amazingly … satisfying.
It's everything a BMW is supposed to be.
I
do live in Florida and I drive it Miami-style: Top down, windows up and A/C at full blast.
It get's stares, it's respectable at the stoplight and it's quick and nimble in traffic.
