That is a subjective statement. I tend to find the sedan a better looking, and more practical option.

Remember: Opinions are like a$$holes, everybody has one.

My advice to the original poster. Go with the Sedan, and procure a rear-facing car seat, situated in the middle rear, anchored to the isofix. We have been using our M3 as our primary "troop transport" for our 10 month old baby girl. With my long legs (I'm 6'1"), the drivers side is tight in the back, but for normal people, the rear provides ample space for a child.

I bought her a German spec Recaro "Young Expert Plus" and the Recaro Isofix base, but after reading extensive research regarding rear and front facing crash data, I opted to reposition her back to the rear in her old car seat. A note for folks reading this article: The Recaro isofix base will not fit in the center of a 3 series Bimmer. The driveshaft tunnel will not allow it to fit. It can only be positioned in the right or left rear seat positions.
