Glider,

I own a 2SS Vert in the Chicago area. Most of my DD is done with the top up and on 55mph back roads. I would not have purchased this car if I lived in the city as in my opinion it needs room to roam.

I guess the cabin noise level is a matter of opinion. I have no issue with it, but then again I have been a convertible driver most of my life. To be honest, the noise level in my car is not much better than it was in my 97 Sebring

. But this fact is more than offset by the enjoyment of driving it with the top down. The Camaro is by far the best looking convertible on the market in the sub 100K market.

In conclusion, you have to be realistic. You get what you pay for. The Camaro kicks every European cars A** (in its price class) in exterior looks as well as the power department, but it can't match them in interior fit & finish, suspension, or noise cancelation.

I am sure I will get some grieve for this statement, but these are the facts the way I see them.
