I thought that a cabrio is the car to ideally drive along the coastline with the top down and a partner next to you. Imagine doing that in a diesel. I know the modern ones have good sound proofing for interiors, but they still sound like tractors from the outside, so driving with the top down will just increase that "I run on wooden chips" low-rpm sound... Again, some diesel fans argue they like that sound better than the silence of a gas engine as low rpm. To each their own!

WTF?! LLN, doesn't BMW 3-Series Coupe and Cabrio (started with last generation E46, 320Cd, 330Cd) and a year ago launched 635d not considered to be a ‘Sports car’ and ‘diesel’?! Well, what is it then a minivan? A far as I know they're known to be a Sports Coupe and a Convertible (Cabrio). ‘…the two terms will finally meet.’?! WTF?!
