 I special ordered a 2002 BMW 330 
convertible. It has been in the shop 7 
times since. Twice for problems with 
the convertible mechanism but 5 times 
including 4 tows for mechanical issues. 
My car has been in the shop since mid 
September and they can't figure out 
what is wrong. They keep on replacing 
the throttle mechanism stating this is 
the problem, but this only fixes the 
problem temporarily. They even had 
service technicians from BMW North 
America look at the car. Also BMW as a 
company is terrible to deal with. Very 
customer unfriendly and currently in 
litigation. Another colleague with a 
2001 330 CIC is having the same 
problem. Very frustrating.
