    What are you talking about? I'm pretty sure most mid engine cars still run a front mounted radiator.

    Yeah, you were just pokin' rob and Lever.
    (I used it as a catalyst to reaffirm one of a convertible's inherent attributes. :D)

    So what have we learned....convertible lebarons, miatas, boxsters, mini-coopers, 911's and vettes are girl cars but "old skool" 67-69 camaro convertibles are definitely manly?:D

    This is how you get taken out of a conversation quickly.

    “Hey I want a bad ass good handling kick ass v8”

    Well here let me suggest this pile of shit wannabe performance car with a fancy name.

    That’s almkst worse than a Miata except you gotta be a gay lawyer to have one

    LeBarons absolutely. Miatas if on the street. Same for a Boxster. Never a 911 and with a Vette they're all mid life crisis. :D

    Verts are only acceptable in classic cars and big body 4 doors.

    Modern 2 door convertibles means your gay, or a divorced woman.

    It’s in the Geneva convention. Look it up.

    Just like chick cars it depends on the model of 2-door sports car. I'll give you things like the A4 Evelyne had. But a Vette not so much, same for the new Camaro, Mustang is iffy depending on the model. Also any 911 ever is cool in a convertible :D

    No.

    Usually convertible are quite a bit heavier than the hard tops so that makes them not about performance.

    Thus=chick models

    Wannabe? You guys are nuts. Boxsters are great sportscars. Look at these numbers:

    Zero to 60 mph: 4.3 sec
    Zero to 100 mph: 9.8 sec
    Zero to 130 mph: 16.7 sec
    Zero to 150 mph: 25.0 sec
    Rolling start, 5-60 mph: 5.3 sec
    Top gear, 30-50 mph: 7.8 sec
    Top gear, 50-70 mph: 5.7 sec
    Standing ¼-mile: 12.6 sec @ 113 mph
    Top speed (mfr's claim): 177 mph
    Braking, 70-0 mph: 144 ft
    Roadholding, 300-ft-dia skidpad: 1.04 g

    The only other option to that rule is T-Top firebird. Then you score badass points.

    My dad drives a a 2004 C5 Z06. I like the C6 and newer body styling, but IMO, you don't need to go chasing HP in this car at all. I think that 04 z06 has about 440hp and you can break the rear end loose through 4th gear.
