Awaiting the Convertible 370z...

Much rather see it as a retractable hardtop than a convertible.

I'm waiting on the convertible, also. I chose a MINI cabrio over the hardtop four years ago and never was disappointed. I see you live in NY so you will have a chance to see the convertible first at the NY Auto Show next month.

I was planning on it until I found out I am moving to Cali for a new job end of the month!

Only if it has weight gain of less than 200lbs or so.

350Z roadster gained 200lbs. I'd bet it's going to be about the same.

I will never own another convertible. I had a fox-body 'vert, and I grew to hate it. The body flexed too much, the top always leaked, the weatherstripping had to be replaced a couple of times, etc.

No ****! They are much better looking! I believe BMW is coming out with one on the Z4.
