Z Vert?

So now that the Convertible is on it's way and cars will be built soon the focus will shift to the Z28. That said do you think they will eventually offer a Convertible Z28 or will they just do a coupe?

I just don't see this happening. But I wouldn't mind it if I was wrong.

I'm 1, 2, and 4, but I definately think they should offer one. I'm loving the drophead the more I see it!!! I don't get one, but I think the market is there

Never been a fan of high horse convertibles but yep - it'll most likely happen and at the same time.

I think it's very possible. The shelby comes in a vert and I don't think the Mustangs platform is as stiff as the Camaro's. I would love to see it happen. Of course I'd like to see the coupe hit the dealer lots first!

Doess anyone else feel convertables are really more like "Sports Cars" and hard tops or coupes are muscle cars?

It's all semantics. We could debate the pony car/ muscle car designation but generally age determines which you think it is. The first gen had a drop top along with the mustang and others so I don't think it's a factor. Just an option. This (picture) is undeniably a muscle car.

Apparently, Callaway is doing a convertible model at 572 HP based on the SS. Seems reasonable that GM could do a Z28 too. Who knows what they will really do though? Certainly not me!
