CNET Review '15 228i Convertible

CNET recently posted its review of the 228i convertible. Nothing new here, but some nice pics. Hopefully BMW will take the advice of CNET and so many others and add the active blind spot detection in the next model.

No wonder it sounded familiar. Where's the "I'm an idiot" emoticon?

You did post a different car mag the reviewer just don't know how to write without having a script supplied by BMW.

What we need is real people with their new cars to write their thoughts.

I think the reality is the people who test 4 cylinder convertibles are benchmarking the car against it's peers, and in that regard it's a very good car.

You won't find guys running hot laps and complaining about chassis flex and lack of turn in on that kind of car review.

The reality is it's a soft top variant of a car that's been out for 2 years. "Is it quiet inside? Is it windy? Can I fit a suitcase in the trunk? OK thanks that's all I needed to know"
