    besides the fact that they are heavy, impractical, and have no roof, yes. and putting on a quasi-roof doesn't really change those things. some verts cost more than M3s back in the day, but none of that means shit in the present.

      True , i can say this . E30's are over priced. :D everyone knows.
      verts are only 200-300 pounds heavier , theres plenty of stuff to drop weight. verts are practical in SoCal

                  he was joking

                      Ben were you running a chip with no hi-po cam in your car? THATS A BIG NO NO :tsk: Because you will have around 500 to 600 rpm of valve float.

                          I did that on my car and i had to watch when going to pull higher RPM'S that i didnt go to high. It will make a that rattle noise and BOOM.

                                Good morning to you all
                                you forgot roasting yourself slowly under the summertime sun. I'd rather not have the sun blaring down on me while driving during the daytime. Summer nights tho, thats a different story. I prefer sunroof over ragtop. Different strokes for different folks.
