I LOVE ROADSTERS! Driving top-down in the summer, day or night, is...ummm...orgasmic.

Have you ever driven a performance car with good rain tires? It can be loads of fun in the rain - and in a sports car kind of way, not a truck kind of way.
I was addressing the OP who was talking about getting two performance cars and one beater

Yes, and no. The "coupe" aspect of a car has to do with poss lighter weight and stiffer structure. The HT vert has greater weight than a coupe (presumably) and is no stiffer than a vert.

You gan get a HT for a vert like the S2000 or Boxster and have a pseudo-coupe but as said it won't be a coupe.

Couldn't agree more

You get the best of both worlds...and the worst of them too
