What in your opinion are they posing to be?
In your opinion does someone who drives a convertible a lesser driver than you?
Just asking because, that "Poser" label is thrown about.
Can someone go from poser to non poser by going to a hard top? What if you own a hard top and a convertible, do you revert to poser status when you switch cars?
I'm sure it is probably all in good fun, and you don't really believe you are the ultimate sports car driver, or do you?

On the M7-A6 discussion, my "other car" is a supercharged LS1 F body Camaro M6. It's as fast as my Vette but a crude tool by comparison. I've been rowing the gears in that tractor for years. It's great fun away from traffic but, stoplight to stoplight in my town, not so much. Life is full of trade-offs.

Gm should offer a vert and coupe for the z06. They should offer auto option as well as full manual. There may be a market for a grand sport type of car with the c7 base engine in a widebody. But those first two options should be absolutely offered.
I sold off my 08 z06 because it was not and auto and got sick of driving stick in place that now live. I also didn't like the fact that it wasn't a vert and again living where live now wanted at least one vert in the stable.
I am not buying a base c7 because I want a higher hp ,widebody bit less common corvette. There will be tons of c7 out there in a few years. But not near as many z06 or zr1s.
So guess we will find out more in a few weeks. I would also be happy if the z06 also have removable roofs. And truth be known generally I prefer retractable hardtops over ragtops but there are pros and cons to each setup. Ragtops are lighter, cheaper, more reliable but retractable roofs look better to me up , are quieter.
One thing didn't like in the c6 was that the 427 was only offered with manual transmission in the vert. But then again that was also the only way the z06 was offered.
