the trunkline extends past the end of the roof towards the window, just like the 3 series vert. this shows that it will open up backwards and fit the roof in the trunk.

Maybe... The thing is that the trunk is split into two, and that is unlike the 3 series. Most of the time, when you see a split between trunk and roof lid, it indicates a soft top...

this is clearly NOT a hardtop. Notice the lines on the top? there aren't any. It's a soft top. no question about it

Unless it's a hardtop covered by soft top material for camo.

You can see cut lines on the top. It's probably just camo'd to look like a soft top.

that camo is kind of .. loud. i'd think they'd want something a little more subtle.

I'm not feeling it either. Yet. Perhaps with the camo off it will look better but it seems pretty bland.
