Posts: 774 Greenville SC | Let me tell you from experience, the girls MAY like the look of convertibles going down the street, but they're really not endeared to cars like guys are; and the first thing they ALWAYS say is "Can we put the top up? My hair's getting messed up."
Quoted for truth. I just sold my BMW 328 convertible because my female could not stand the top being down. I would go for an S2000 if I had the coin, I do not consider them too girly.

I've no idea why the picture isn't showing. The forum update no longer automatically embeds the pictures you upload. You have to follow the image link from your post, copy the URL, edit the post and put the image in with the image button.

Posts: 4,119 Northfield Mn | Nice Z Mike. I had a 76' that I will forever regret selling. I keep wanting to get a 93-98 Supra. G.D. things keep going up in price though, and getting even tougher to find with lower miles, or modded.
The problem with the Elise or the Exige is you have to be a flippin' midget to fit in the things. Other than that they're a frickin go-kart in all the good ways.
I'm boatless.

Mike Are you saying my CJ-7 is not a good mans convertible? I would definitely agree that a CJ-7 would qualify...but be careful, you're probably going to end up with me over here in pansy land with this crowd.

Hilarious. Blazer won only because CJ-7 ran out of gas

I like the Audi, Im actually looking for a TDI wagon, Jetta or preferably a Passat, my wife thinks I need a big truck, but I am comfortable in my manhood and dont need a big truck or convertible to compensate for ANYTHING!
