At least I know you are not a thief..taking a blade to the top is silent breaking a window, on the other hand , takes a lot more effort plus it makes noise. I have never had a window broken in any car on trips. I wish I could say the same about my convertible. In fact in my C 5 I just leave the doors unlocked. Nothing in the car to steal. If they want to steal the car, either car, non of the above makes any difference. :smash:

I have been driving corvette converts since I was 17 and now 50 years later I still have never had one broken into or a top vandalized.

I would not go so far as to say the Vert looks better than the Coupe, but, it sure looks nice. I'd say it would be a real beauty if the price difference was only 2 grand or less. Then I'd be impressed.

Post pictures of it with the top up, and it'll look worse.

I disagree with the op. Love the coupe, not a fan of the vert.

There are some pics that way on the forum. Threads come and go so fast, and so many are for the same topics, I don't remember where it was. But they are out there. I think it looks great with the top up too.

While the top is down, it looks like the Corvette I'm used to seeing. Don't care for the rag top either.

First pics I have seen of the vert. I REALLY like that. Of course I am a vert guy.... :D

No, you're thinking of the Volkswagon Cabriolet

Coupe vs convertible
 
I have had both. Why does it matter which you prefer?

direct007 01-19-2013 09:18 AM

These vert vs coupe threads are like arguing which ice cream flavor is best...chocolate of vanilla. It's a matter of personal preference and I prefer the vert after having owned both.

Agreed... Now if it came in Lemans Blue...? :D

Never bought a convertible because of the winters we have up here in Montreal Canada last 2 days was -25 Celcius.

However I know someone who said the convertibles tend to be warmer inside, then a hardtop because less metal to freeze the interior. Is that true?:)

AWSOME 04 01-19-2013 10:12 AM

Wow! This is the first picture that I have seen of the Vert.

I like it! I didn't like the C 6 although it did grow on me. I have a C 5 Vert which I love.

I'm not a woman nor a ***.

Just my 2 cents worth.

I have owned both coupes and convertibles. I always get nervous when I travel over night that some fool will get into my car by slicing the roof. I would rather have a convertible but I am buying the coupe. I plan on driving coast to coast and I will rest much better,,:toetap:

It's just as easy to break the window. Hope this doesn't hinder your rest stops.
Buy what you really want.
