do you like the convertibles? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Looks good with the top down, but I don't like it with the top up so my vote is no. I like the coupe much better.

RichGreene · 09-22-2011, 03:56 PM

Not with the top up, but if thats what you want who are we to say ?? I think with the top up it has the roofline of the PT convert.

This is tough to vote on with just a yes or no option. I like the look of the car with the top down but not up. Would I own one in favor of the hardtop, NOPE!

So I voted no....

But then again I wouldn't own a vert period. So it is not limited to the Camaro....

Bobbyosto · 09-22-2011, 03:58 PM

Like it top down, top up,no.

The car was designed from the get-go as a drop top and it is beautiful to behold!!

If it had a folding hardtop, might consider. Too many things will go wrong with a softtop.

Nice down south, might sux in the north

GARYSSS · 09-22-2011, 04:44 PM

I voted yes because I do like convertibles, buy not all convertibles. Like others have said some look great down, but not so good up. In the Camaro I do like the couple better because I think it looks sportier, but the convertible still looks great. I have a few that I like up and down.

BAD DAB · 09-22-2011, 04:50 PM

Yes. I like all Gen5 Camaros

CCbusa09 · 09-22-2011, 04:55 PM

Convertibles look great with their tops down, but I'd never own one. After a couple of years the top starts looking "used", not to mention the beating the interior gets from the sun, wind and dust! I cringe to think about it, but that's just me.

Kahdir · 09-22-2011, 05:18 PM

Top down they're great!

nah it's not hard to vote yay or nay, it has a top because you're going to have to have it up at some point. otherwise they would have made it topless from the start

going back to your original post, you said it looks good down and bad up and there should be options for both in the poll. i disagree in that it is designed to be both up or down, so if you don't like it one of those positions, you ultimately don't like the convertible.
