I'm jealous of vert drivers, therefore, I think they are girly.

Your just jealous because we don't need a roof and dark window tinting to cover up how ugly we are

Z roadster is not a girly car. Period. An Eclipse is. The old Mercedes SLK was. The Miata can be both masculine and feminine.

I won't go into the Z vs. ZR debate because it's an old and tired fight. But I will talk about the Lamborghini Murcielago since I love that car.

To me, the Lamborghini Murcielago "roadster", is really a Lamborghini Murcielago "targa". The cover is a piece of roof frabic that you put on manually. Hence why I think it looks awsome, because it still has the back end lines of the Murcielago. and all you are doing is taking the roof off.

A lot of people would love to have a targa 350Z because it let's you have the sun as well as keep the sexy back rooflines.

ANyhoo, just my two cents.

The Z is a very masculine ride in any form.

Its not "Cute" or "Adorable", it Muscular, sexy, curvey and agressive.

When the Top Drops, so do the Panties!

I've seen 2 drop-top Z's, and both were driven by a girl. Also both were bright yellow.

Miatas are gay any way you vut it...same for BMW Z3, Z4, Eclipse Vert. The Z isnt as girly as most verts, but IN GENERAL, convertables are more "girlie" than coupes. Take the most muscular aggressive looking coupe in the world, put the same version of it beside it except for it being a drop top and it will look more girlie. Just the way it is.

I find the majority of people that bag on convertibles have never owned one.

Doesn't the old generation SLK look girly with the top up too (when its essentially a coupe)? Girly is more a function of the car not if its a roadster.

Not taking sides, but I would hate to have to own a Pontiac Aztec before I could "bag" on the way it looks.

no its not girlie..

I've a coupe, but I like ZRs alot, with the TOP DOWN. With the top up it looks weird. Ugly? hmm...maybe, but it looks like the Z was never meant to be a roadster.

If all Zs were roadsters with 17" stock rims, I would never consider buying it. A little off-topic, but dont you think 17" stockers make a Z look extremely ugly?

Actually if you put both the coupe and Roadster next to each other in a parking lot everyone will check out the Roadster and ignore the coupe... Just the way it is
