One thing she might not like about the Saab is that it's FWD, if it's really a issue for her.

The Ford T-bird has a nice back seat and sells for around $40K also.

Or maybe a new S4 ! And not everyone has one !!

I personally love the A4...get the 3.0, its quick, handles well, and has AWD, a great safety feature for the family, then again you could get the 325xi convert too.

I like the A4 styling better and I don't like the fact that everyone and their mother have the 325's now, just too popular for me. Don't get me wrong, BMW's are absolutely amazing cars, but in this case I choose the A4

having 2 convertibles in my family (i.e. 328 ic and s2000), I can tell you it's a pain not having a practical sedan (i.e. a car I can take full-size adults in, haul more than a few bags of groceries, go on long trips, etc). I'm actually going to sell the 328 in spring and get a nice sedan. the way I see it, if she wants to drive a convertible, she can borrow mine whenever. at least we'll have 1 practical car. then again, if you're considering high end cars like a new 330 or lexus, the above sentiment is probably not that big a concern in your situation. good luck!

Honda Accord cabriolet.........oops n/a. Ah Acura CL Type-S cabriolet.....nope that neither. Hey Tom Elliot do yo see what this guy wants!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only logical choice in my book -Toyota Solara convertible.
Power,looks and backed by Toyota mechanicals

Honda is really missing the boat here;or should I say AHM
