Coupe or convertible sports car debate
Curious to know your thoughts. A ton of sports cars come in both coupe and convertible. Porsche 718 Boxster and Cayman, Corvette and Camaro, previous-gen Shelby GT500, BMW M4, Mercedes-AMG C63 and S63, Audi S5 and a bunch of other models, new and old.
Most purists will say you get a coupe for added rigidity among other reasons. Others figure that if you’re going to use your sports car mostly in nice weather anyway, might as well enjoy it with the top down.
Personally, modern sports cars now offer just about the same level of performance regardless of the body style so I tend to be of the second group. Plus you can hear the engine better.
