Hardtops>Ragtops
Hardtop Convertibles>Ragtops
T-Tops>Ragtops

Basically - Ragtops suck.

That is, in MY opinion.

Anyway,

You know you just have to have on of these

I dont know what domestic companies are thinking. Im not saying that all domestics suck but we come up with some really ugly/stupid shit.

The Shelby GR1 looks ok for being a modern day flight of the navigator car.

And the new mazda speeds seem ok but having reverse right next to 1st gear scares me.

meh.

You do that, while i could do the exact same thing with a hard top convertible which looks 10 times better when i have to put it up.

Very few cars can pull a rag top imo and that stang isnt one.

Post by: Ace on January 17, 2005, 07:20:40 AM: I disagree. For me, I like the look of rag tops. Maybe it\'s just knowing the fun of having the top down. I guess will agree to disagree.
