"In addition to all this new hardware, the 3-series interior is completely changed, but not necessairily for the better. The appearance is terrific, but the switchgear and the materials seem cheaper than the old car's: the climate-control buttons, for instance, are no where near as good as a VW Jetta's. As with the 7-series, you have to insert the key into a slot and then hit the button to start and stop the car. Call me a Luddite, but what's wrong with turning the key?"

Great reviews in both articles. I certainly like the styling they did a great job. It will be interesting to see the reviews after it has been out a while. Hopefully no major issues develop as that is always a concern with a new design. I just ordered a 2005 330cic and am glad I didn't wait as the new convertible will not be out until January 2007!
