There's nothing like having a convertible and running down a hardtop because you can always throw the weight factor and drag factor in their face just to make them feel like more shit

had both,since my cars never see the track,I get a lot of enjoyment out of the conv.

As far as power,I can hold my own,there is more head room in the back seat(top down) for cruising the waterfront with another couple etc.

The hardtop was a little quieter far as road noise,but thats what a stereo is for

I love my hardtop but there's nothing like a cool sports car convertible on a nice summer day.

You could drive one under a semi-trailer at high speed and try that Fast and Furious 2 stunt.

I would cry.

I haven't heard anything about it, but I bet the second it comes out it will be on the front page of MM. The moderators are pretty good about putting the latest news on there.

(that is as long as your wife is at home) lol
