i know wat he meant.

my post was reinforcing why roadsters that were designed to be roadsters from the start are considered more valid (for enthusiasts) than roadsters that were originally coupes but later modified into their shape... i suppose.

WTF? I am a 60 year old woman with white hair and I drive it like I stole it.

So much for stereotypes.

She would have bought the car for the nice looks and because she knows she's showing off a pricy vehicle but she's not actually using it how it was intended to be used which is to be driven hard? I believe that's what they meant by "the wrong reasons".

99% of roadsters only look good if they were originally designed to be a roadster, not a hardtop with the roof missing. The 350/370Z wears the cloth top even worse than most because IMO it's the roof line sloping into the big rear flares that make the car. Consequently, convertible Zs look like crap to me and I'd never own one.

Flame on.
i concur

While I'm not a fan of the looks of the Z roadsters, I don't think anyone can say that anyone who buys them is doing so for the wrong reasons. I mean, what the hell are the right reasons? Track duties? Autox? Or looking good while getting from point A to B?
This is a very basic example and I hope I can explain it the way I intend. You don't buy a corolla for speed, you buy it for gas mileage. That would be the right reason. To buy the Z with the conv when it seems to be an after thought design seems to me like the wrong reason.
