Other Choices:

    In a shape that exudes contemporary BMW styling, the 2008 BMW 1-Series offers room for four and a bit of luggage. Compared to the svelte 3-Series, the 1-Series looks a bit stubby, but it gets the job done. Beyond the more expensive 3-Series, there aren't many direct model-per-model competitors to the 1-Series. In terms of body styles (2+2 coupe and convertible), the Ford Mustang GT comes closest, but because of its domestic roots, we doubt there will be much cross-shopping going on between these two. A more realistic competitor is the V-6-powered Infiniti G37 Coupe, although the G37 is not offered as a convertible. The converse is true about the sporty Honda S2000, although it is a strict two-seater powered by a high-revving four-cylinder.
