3 series convertibles have ALWAYS sold for less than an equivalent coupe on the used market. They're perceived as having more potential issues, and they're not at all sportier than a coupe counterpart--the convertible variant is always going to be both heavier and have a floppier chassis.
This was true when I bought my e30's almost 10 years ago, about 3.5k for a clean convertible and 4.5-5k for a coupe. It's been consistent for e36, e46, and e93.
