pros cons of coupe vs. roadster

LONDON2012 · 11-22-2010, 10:28 AM

I test drove both a couple of weeks ago. I thought I wanted the roadster, but I absolutely hated it during the test drive so I drove the coupe and loved it. I've had 01 eclipse spyder and 300 t-top and I love topless driving. In the 370z vert I felt really small. Kinda like the car itself was massive. It felt bigger than my 350z. I know the car isn't bigger but that was the imression it was leaving on me. Also when I drive topless, I like to rest my arm on the window ledge. The ledge is too high for me to do that comfortably. As for the coupe, it felt perfect. Felt just like my 350 except faster. I didn't feel small in it. It felt just right. In coupes I don't roll down the windows when drive so the window ledge won't bother me.

Just my impressions after driving both.
