Agree with you on convertibles being more fun. Just feels like a hardtop is two cars in one, and, for my money, prefer it for all the reasons above. As a California transplant, the convertible is living the dream. There's a 4-5 year old Bentley in our building, and the folds in the top look terrible already.
I don't think there are any other 4 seat convertible on the market going fwd... Chrysler Sebring? 😰
My 2 year old loves mama's sky car.
