Re: Corvette C2. Would you buy a coupe or a convertible?

I have owned 3 coupes and now have a 1965 396/425 big block coupe; when I fire it up it scares all the little kids out of the 'hood...
I am a coupe guy.

Coupe because there are fewer of them, they look way better, they are much more solidly built and hold together better over time than the leaky, usually rusted 'verts.

I think the 63 split window was the best looking coupe out there and most people ask me if I have the vette with the 2 windows in the back.

I like putting the windows down or turning on the air more than driving in the sun and open air.

But in a parade or going slow, well haven't thought about that.

My personal taste is a coupe but love em both.

Sports cars have a removable top. Period. End of paragraph.

Nothing like a fuelie roadster with top down and side pipes blasting away in the warm weather. Once it gets cool my car does not see outside. Havent used the hardtop in 30 some years!

I've had several of both. They are two totally different cars but nothing beats the looks of a coupe.

I like em both.

In todays market, get one of each!

Ya your right the Ferrari GTO (among many others)was no sports car.

Claus,

Forget the looks, you can't see them when you're driving it. The experience for me is the sun and the wind, which you only get in a convertible. But in your latitude, you want the coupe.

Re: Corvette C2. Would you buy a coupe or a convertible?

midyear cars to me are the only ones that look just as good as coupes as they do convertibles. 63 models are better to me as a coupe. i want a 63 coupe. 68 up i am strictly a rag top man.

Re: Corvette C2. Would you buy a coupe or a convertible?

You really need one of each.

I own a convertible and would buy that again, so that's what I voted.

However, you won't get much of an argument from me regarding buying a coupe though, as the fastbacks definitely have "the look".
