roadster or coupe

had12many · 03-25-2009, 12:16 PM

I, for one, want the vert. While performance is something that's important to me, top down motoring is the only way to go! That's why I want the 370z vert! Best of both worlds!! I'm in Florida, and while they call it the "sunshine state", a good majority of the spring/summer/fall are spent dealing with rain (the afternoons anyway).

I was down at the dealership a month or so ago and was close to closing on a 350z vert. But, when I heard there was a possibility that a 370z vert was going to be coming out, I decided to wait and see.

Definitely the coupe.
The roadster is going to be a soft top.
Soft top is noisy and will wear out quickly in a few years.
Beside most roadsters look good when the top is down but not so good when the top is up.
I only consider the convertible only if it is a hard top and It looks good with the top up like the Mercedes SL coupe.

I'm a coupe person and always have been; it's basically that I prefer the little edge in performance a coupe has over a convertible. However, the longer I live in WI, the more I think about making the switch to convertibles. We don't have too many great weather days and with that being true, I keep feeling like I want to the "outside" for every single second I can during the warmer months. I do not think my next car with be a vert, but I am thinking about it.
