What differences exist between 2001 and 2005 BMW 3 series coupes?
I know some have different tail lights, headlights, and packages... What are these packages - sport, premium, etc?

BMW convertible issues?
Hi I have a 2005 BMW 3 series and just recently my convertible top won't go down. Everytime I press the convertible button an orange light flashes. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Also I cleaned out my trunk and it still would not go down?
