      From experience, I can tell you the cabriolet chassis is the stiffest.

      >> 1988 3.1 ITB E30 /// 2002 E46 M3 6MT / 2008 335xi 6MT / 1991 S38B36 E30 (sold)

                    Rigidity is not important. Whats important is DOWNFORCE! Try adding some 45 lb disc weights to the trunk and cabin, heck, set two on top of the engine. Each weight you can fit in there is more downforce, and will allow a more racecar experience. Trust me, I'm a doctor.

                      Not to go off topic or anything. But has anyone realized how delicious sandwiches are? I mean DAMN!!!! Sandwiches got it going on!

                      Your thoughts?

                        I <3 rev. two pages and nothing that even resembles an answer. Theoretically a 4 door slick top should be the stiffest.
