Finalist 2020 C7 of the Year -- Unmodified

Default Ok, I know C7 Coupes out sell Convertibles but I bet it's a lot closer on this forum.

I know C7 coupes outsell C7 Convertibles by a huge margin yearly but I bet it is a lot closer when it comes to Corvette Forum members in the C7 section only. Lets find out Coupe or Convertible AND LETS NOT TURN THIS IN TO A COUPE VS CONVERTIBLE DEBATE! Feel free to post a picture of your PRIZE C7 TOO as they are all beautiful Coupe or Convertible!

Absolutely!

The poor schmoes that can't experience the convertible top down experience, are the ones affected by this.

If the vert was a spider style i would be all over it. But I don’t like soft top verts esp on the corvette; it totally changes the lines of the vehicle. IMO

I've never been a fan of rag tops...

Now if Chevy offered a retractable hardtop with similar lines of the coupe I'd be all over that...

I’ve been a coupe guy most of my life but the Vert is one of the nicest convertibles out there.

One of the reasons I sold my 02Z and 03S2000 was to thin the herd and get a removable roof car.

Not as good as a vert( IMO),but close enough for my use.
