It was linked to in a thread within the past week or so, so it's not completely their fault. I remember seeing it somewhere

I'd have to say t-tops ftw! i can't bust balls on a vert cause i've never been in one. don't take it the wrong way but i look at verts more as a girls car than anything. i'm sure when the tops down and its all open is pretty sweet but i wouldn't know. I'd have the say if i was to own a vert it would be a ferrari since some ferrari models only come as verts.

Exactly why most of you shouldn't be able to vote in this contest.
We've had all three combos and I've spent a good deal of time in all of them.

yea ya dropped the ball on that one, verts were around befor t-tops. yea i have to agree with rock on this one, verts seem girly. my girlfriend has a vert sebring (almost a camaro) and it is pretty cool i have to admit. the only thing holding me back buying a vert is the looks and the wind noise while on the highway

my friend had a convertible 88 cabriolet with the sole purpose of beating it to death. the only thing the convertible was good for was jumping in and out of the car

Looks are completely up to you, so I'll leave you alone on that one.

If you're worried about wind noise, I have to say there is very little wind noise due to the 19 degree windshield. Several members have ridden in my car at highway speeds and can attest to this (1994lt1, redbird99, etc). I know for one there's more wind noise in my truck at 30 than the Camaro at 70. My ex was surprised too, we could have a normal conversation just like if we were in a regular car at 70 mph.

T-Tops are the best of both worlds in all senses. Verts are sweet only when the top is down, if you can get me a hardtop vert F-Body im won, TTops also make those people who wish to have a solid roof happy as well.

For me TTops are the best i can get in and out of the car much easier with the TTops off because its a pain for me to climb in and out of these cars. i am 6'4 enough said.
