in terms of resale value, which one do you guys think would be easier to let go?

Very difficult to ascertain but I think the cabrio (in general) will be more difficult to let go as Singaporeans are a practical lot.

The question is asked in a tricky manner.

Ease of letting go, for the 335 version, it is gonna be the coupe over the cabrio.

If you buy new, BOTH will kill you in depreciation when you want to sell it. I would think that if you sell within 5 years, and you try to do PAPER+BODY, the body value difference will be within S$5000 in favour of the cabrio because of greater desirability in export markets, especially the UK. The UK is the world's biggest market for cabrio in Europe.

If one is able to get these cars in the first place, 'resale' shouldnt be an issue.

Guys, inside PML site, there are 3 models of E93 cabrio : 325i, 325i (Highline) and 335i (Highline).

What does Highline means?

Sounds like higher specs to me

Vincar's "normal line" 335i got Logic 7 Hifi

, front PDC

, and more

. but no I-drive or Satnav

It's alot more important to have the I-drive for this variant than the Logic7 Hi-Fi IMO.
