Right, E46 coupe.  I titled the thread COUPLE question it should have
been COUPE question.

I was wondering if they did that with sedans as well.

I think coupes are a little lower to the ground too.  I think a sedan
would be better for me, although the coupes have a more captivating
look, IMO.

He's talking about e46 coupe.

Which BMW are you talking about???
My e46 has doorframes - was it a "Ci" cabriolet??

I got a ride in an E46 and noticed something funny about the windows.

The windows are kind of "stand alone"...they are not "in the frame" of
the door like on my old Japanese car.  When you close the door with
the window up, the top most part of the door IS the window...ie
there's no metal frame in which the window is enclosed.

I'm not sure why BMW does this.  I would think it maybe makes it look
sleeker...but you have to be careful to close the door from the actual
door and not the window.  In my Japanese car you can grab the top
corner of the door, right at roof level and it's metal.  In the BMW it
is the window itself.

Do they do this on sedans as well?

I'm just curious.  Sorry to belabor the point.
