I think a convertible x5 would still be prettier than an x6
As for the mx5...i know people RAVE about them but i really imagine them to be really really wanky under powered pieces of crap

I was never off it!!!
you just had a hissy fit for some reason
Personally I better response to my original post would have been....
'I havent had any convertibles... but I know I won't like them!
For the same reasons that I haven't tried bumsex with another man!'
It was YOU that lost the humour and missed a fine opportunity!

It's usually pretty obvious when i have a hissy fit so err err not this time
Convertibles and bum sex with men mentioned in the same sentence? Imagine that

Probably dont NEED genuine CSL wheels..
BUT .. fit and forget.. no worrying that you haven't got the right dish on the rear etc...
they are only a grand aswell!
genuines are made by BBS aswell and are very light!!

mine came with replicas, bloke said they were lightest and strongest ones blah blah...
they certainly seem ok. Offset and dish is certainly correct.
I'd have bought genuine as well if buying new... (and slagged the replicas boys
)But to be honest. They are fine so far.
I have a spare rear that he gave me. I could weigh it and see the difference if anyone knows weight of genuine rear.
BBS make Techart wheels as well... and they weigh more than the moon! so just being BBS means nothing.
I suspect they will be very very good though the gen CSL wheels. Or maybe they are as good as the geuine CSL brakes
P.S I think the photos are cool Dave! nowt wrong with those,

CS Wheels are standard width at the front, and alloy.
genuine CSL are mag/alloy and and inch or 1/2 inch wider at the front.
alot of the boys order 4 rear wheels for a larger dish at the front.

I appreciate an fwd Rs Turbo is much more manly and heterosexual than all these
I'd happily take one from Gaybird in return for either of these!
at cheaper end of scale... lots of xtreme FUN cars are droptops.
and the three maddest cars you can buy in my opinion.
caparo, Atom V8 and Levante
All insane. none are mincey or gay.
I'd gladly cut hair for any of these cars!!!

Easy children!!!
First off, it's still a great car to drive. Obvioussly its not as acomplished as the coupe, but on the road, I doubt any of you (bar super-Mike of course 
) have the ability to expolit even half of what this car can do.
As for the track, I may do the odd day here and there, but am not in a position to write off a 15k BMW on track, and will likely invest in a PROPER track car when I go racing next year.
Driving for me is just as much about the enjoyment of the whole experience, rather than one aspect.
As for the hairdresser comments:
Its better than the MR2 I used to own and that wasn't even a droptop!
People in glass houses and all that... rather be a hairdresser driving a very fast good looking BMW, than hooning round a supermarket car park in a Ł3k sierra looking like some sort of council estate pikey! 
Still, if I wanted to look totally straight, I could get myself a white escort with gold wheels!!!

not a fan of droptops really, but a ferrari spider, lambo spider, m3 vert etc are defo man cars, end of. If i was buying a brand new m3 i would have a vert, must be awesome fun on a sunny day with the roof down, if it drives anywhere near as well as the coupe.

Lee,
Please point me in the direction of the hard top versions of the above cars
It is ONLY convertibles that are homo, cars designed to not have a roof in the first place, don't suffer from the terrible scuttle shake that normal cars that have had a roof chop do
. Cars with an electric roof are automatically 
by that very thing .The Porsche is poo and you couldn't give it to me (unless I was allowed to drive it once and then sell it IMMEDIATELY
), the F50 is just off the scale, and I would even allow you to have sex with me if we got to share it 50/50 (you could have it October to March and I'd have it April to September - deal? ).E46s are amazing, and the CSL is one of my all time favourite cars (irrespective of budget), so to chop the roof off one offends me greatly
.
