With the roadster it only looks good with the top down, and we all know you cant do that all year long!

the roadster looks good, but I'm a performance guy, and it's heavier and less rigid, coupe FTW!

Vert - handles better, looks funny with top up

Coupe - handles worse, less weight

Unless your like me that have a Z32TT for anytime and the 350zr with the top dropped for the sunny days.

Depends how you look at it. Z32TT for performance, 350zr for cruising.

But if i only had 1 car i would probably choose the 350z Coupe.

I would choose a Z32TT over a 350z tho.

So far the Zrs have been beating the coupes on the mod race.

Keep it up.

On a side note I saw a 4.0 Vert Supercharged at a meet the other week. sounded sick

How does a conv. handle better? It's less rigid, therefore more flex in the body, which means less handling.Anyway, coupe FTW!

i thought the roadster was ugly at first and was thinking of the coupe...but then id get bored easily with no option of going topless,and after researching the roadster i fell in love and had to choose it over the coupe, i love it! all sides of it, top up, top off.. its just gorgeous!
