How 'fat' are you? I'm willing to bet it's more than 10kg over 68kg. The weight is in the glass which is at the back and I don't mind a marginally more rearward weight bias.
I'll take the structural rigidity that's over double the roadster's thanks.
To be frank, the coupe and roadster serve different purposes so depending on what you want will determine what's best.
If you want to waft your bonce in the airy breeze and enjoy a quite different sensation of open top motoring then the roadster rocks. If you want a decent boot and slightly better dynamics the coupe wins. Looks wise either wins but personal preference can swing it.
PS: I know you were joking but it's hard to convey the tone of response on the internet.

Recently OG ( M coupe ) & Darren Stone ( M roady ) were out & swapped vehicles for a time
Both noticed differences in drive & handling with objective comments written on the virtues of both
Can't remember which thread it was in though :?
As for the OP question ? I was Coupe all the way until i ventured into a roadster , now i think a weekend car for me would need that extra element dropping the top offers & certainly in the M roady you realy get to hear where your money has gone :wink: intoxicating

If you love that M rasp and induction roar you can't beat the surround-sound aural orgasm that is the noise bouncing of trees, hedges walls and the atmosphere in general when you're blatting round the lanes with the top down. End of
If BMW hadn't made the M coupe then I'd never have bought a Z4. They look entirely different cars to me.
I love a sports car that has a nice flowing roof line down to the rear.

Same as the above post. I lusted after it for 9 years until I got mine.

roadster looks better in the non m versions, the coupe looks better in the m? discuss.....but all look good and are ageing timelessly
