New Sebring drop top

Looks nice.

I always liked the convertible Sebrings. They had the most room of any convertible this side of the Rolls Royce!
The drop top is cool, but no doubt compromises the cargo/passenger room.

Might be a fun summer test drive......

Reminds me alot of the Toyota Solara Convertible. I don't think the Solara has a retractable hard top though.

Actually I like the Toyota look a lot and am a real fan of the now aging Sebring. I'll give the new one a chance though.

I even like the Volvo C70 convertible.



But hey, I,like curvy ragtops what can I say. I drive these in the summer:

Personally, I prefer what GM has to offer,
but then again I am very loyal to GM...

Love that one too. Great new Pontiac.

But I could not go there as it is a two seater and I simply need more room, hence I always prefer Corvairs to Corvettes and liked the Sebring because it had room in it. Besides, anyone can get a Corvette. No one dirves Corvairs. I love orphan cars!

I liked the Buick Reatta in its day , but never got one as it was a two seater.



Check out this Buick. I'd love one of those!!!!!

HMM....maybe if you weren't so focused on being so brand loyal, you'd realize that you are comparing apples to oranges here. Sebring and Solara are 4 seaters, all the ones you posted are 2 seaters, with the G6 being the exception.

Convertible are great for the trasplant teams, need roll bars to protect all.
Please don't take it wrong. I like them, but if you have seen as many ER visits owner have made,,,,,,,,,,,,,well you would know what I mean.
