I feel like a lot of this video is just an argument against bad convertibles. The Miata was designed as a convertible only so it doesn't have the rigidity issues, wind blockers prevent the wind noise, and good aero design--even just a spoiler--helps the inefficiencies. And who keeps stuff they don't want stolen in their car? Convertible or not, cars are not secure places to store things.

[@c4onmylip]

Overlooked fact: convertibles/soft tops handle better on winding roads and in autocross because you have less weight high up, lowering the center of gravity letting you corner and brake with less weight transfer. Because you have less weight transfer, rolling over during a hard corner (or even offroading in an open air 4x4) is less likely. Being open air definitely has some advantages depending on what you want to use the car for.

One was 4.2 gasoline and another o e was 3.0 tdi. The torque and efficiency of the diesel engine totally killed the meaning of gasoline engine in heavy vehicles. Diesel can tow and do stuff on rather low RPMs. But gasoline one was nice too in its own way. It was slightly more quiet but it took so much fuel and had not all that much power.

Two rules of convertible ownership: 1. Never keep your doors locked. 2. Never keep anything you don't want stolen in your car.

Ain't that the truth. The worst is when someone busts out a window, or cuts open the top, to steal something cheaper than what they destroyed to get to it. Someone once busted the drivers side window of my wife's 68 fastback, to steal a $40 radar detector, and we had basic liability on it at the time. And the door and wing window, were both unlocked. $150 repair and clean up, plus having to order and ship the glass, over a cheap fuzz buster, and $6 in change from the ashtray. Someone cut through the soft half cab of my 73 Bronco once, to unlock the passenger side door, just to rummage through it, to see what they could find. Wasn't anything worth finding in it, out of habit, AND the drivers side was unlocked, when I parked it. I never locked that door, because the key didn't match, and I didn't have a key for that door. Went with a removable hard top after that, and got a new lock set.

Truck showed up an hour later, and I walked over, got in, and took it back. "Owner" called the cops, as I drove to city hall, stopped out front, and walked in. He pulled in behind me, came in, showing a registration minus name. I had the title. Someone sold him the truck, using the registration, when the title was needed in my state. He gave up his keys, on the spot. Here's the funny part. The cop who wrote the tickets was the same one who took the report. And yes, he got an ass chewing from me, and the chief, over that fact. Once that was resolved, the city shifted the tickets to the driver, at the time, who had a record, and just kept the signed registration, as proof of ownership, but never went to DMV, and the suspension order was rescinded.

Well, VW Golf Cabriolet MK1 and MINI Cooper R52S are really nice even those cars were designed as hard-top initially.

[@mark_warrior998]

Sorry my dear but a continental cabriolet or a 6 series cabrio are simply stunning and they comes from a coupe body

[@Kreed1910]

I'm sorry guys, but I drive a miata 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@natehahn85]

62 Lincoln continental conv looks great and it was after the hardtop. But I mostly agree with you

[@binzozo]

The 2012 Nissan Murano convertible looks soo bad 😂

[@danielmcpherson4612]

hay man don't diss my car.

[@dabo1wondathe3rd59]

Daniel McPherson nice car I have a weird fetish for that one convertible just because they are super rare and break necks

[@danielmcpherson4612]

DaBo1Wonda The 3rd sadly that isn’t my real car. I was just pretending. I actually drive an NC Miata hardtop also a fairly fair car but doesn’t have that wow factor looks wise.

[@DingoXBX]

ewww why does that even exist

[@enzoliu391]

it was simply a big mistake, in every single way, and I can't believe that I, a Nissan fan boy, just said this to a Nissan

[@rc-wingman5719]

I love my Peugeot 206 cc. It's dope! It has a hardtop roof and cost me about 2000$ when I bought it. The Peugeot 206 CC with it's 109 PS is my favorite car so far.

[@adamspitfire]

I love my 1989 Camaro RS convertible, looks epic with the top up

[@TheJdinner]

life without a convertible is no life at all. Dont understand the gripes this video has with them..I have a bmw z3 2.8 and most of what was said in this video does not hold true based on my experience. still love the channel

[@kevanliasta9341]

Still it's understandable why they suck based on this video

[@TheKacper2001]

I do don’t care about the practicality. Convertible is fun and wind in the hair.

[@Edwinbraun20]

I’ve bmw e30 baur and it’s a great automobile with it’s opened roof. I like riding motorcycle and so I also like convertible cars a lot. I know these cars aren’t as practical but honestly... practicality isn’t my thing to begin with. No kids but only girls and their messy flying hair. I love it. I recommend convertible to everyone who’s living in safe towns and just want to feel more engaged with the world around them while driving. Benefits: You can smile and give a friendly wave when you want to change the lane in traffic. People are very friendly when smile with eye contact is established. Actually there are many great benefits of driving convertible. It’s super nice to light up a joint while top down. I really like convertibles

[@mitchellbenbrook2041]

Miss my Saab 900 convertible, mostly because it made me a Saab fanboy and it was fun in the summer.

[@bb6279]

SAAB FTW

[@scotchtape2736]

My Mercedes e400 convertible doesn’t have many of these problems... my mgb has all of these problems to the maximum, and it’s super slow, it just feels so pure

[@RedVoodoo69er]

I've had three Miatas over the years and now have a 370Z Roadster in the garage. Verts are not for everyone.

[@Mamoulikos]

Why three miatas?

[@fkkkkkenig]

@@Mamoulikos The man loves Miatas, and who can blame him

[@JustNando503]

A 350 or 370z convertible are disgusting

[@sparklyqueen12]

Cheap

[@voncoconut5293]

Now we know why Formula 1 cars don't handle very well - no roof.

[@patrickracer43]

Is this Sebastian Vettel's burner account? I kid

[@ericfeldkamp3788]

1. Wind noise makes conversation with your spouse nearly impossible. Advantage: Convertible

[@garythecyclingnerd6219]

Yeah, there not great but for $4,000 I didn’t have much choice other than miata if I didn’t want to constantly wrench on jt

[@autosarte7356]

Y'all are gonna get called out by Scotty Kilmer for that kove promotion lol.

[@tracksprime2289]

One thing you didn't think about is wranglers, they are not aerodynamic, they are 99% of the time slow, and who is racing their wranglers? Despite that, great video guys!

[@jeremyb8201]

I had a hawk drop a snake in my Sunfire convertible. Luckily it ate it is head off before doing so. Totally agree. They suck.

[@Edwinbraun20]

They suck coz you probably never had one. I’ve been driving mine for 15 years and I’m loving it

[@thecianinator]

@@Edwinbraun20 That's fucking metal

[@integrity2358]

I feel like some missed cars that could’ve been talked about were the Jeep CJs and Wranglers that are both convertible hard tops and soft tops.

[@shaunw9270]

The AC / Shelby Cobra is the reason why the 70mph motorway speed limit was introduced in the UK in the late 60's. A car magazine or two tested one , regularly hitting 170mph, it was widely reported in the news and there was uproar in the government & various safety organisations.

[@vaipuluj]

Shit I go top down always in my MR2 Hot? Run AC, Cold? Run the heater, Rain? Drive faster, Snow? Roll up your windows so you can skid properly(see rain)

[@truelegendinblack]

Lmao

[@openmindedillustrations7106]

You know convertibles have a/c too dont you know

[@TerribleUsernameAmirite]

Ooh yea Dohhnt yooo knoo

[@kevinmontoya7318]

Crank the AC up with windows and top down its a whole different world of fresh and cool

[@brandon4391]

lol XD what about turning the heat up and opening the rear windows when it’s cold outside? Can’t beat that

[@openmindedillustrations7106]

Oh yup I forgot about that one that's a good one right there heat up top down

[@ThijsVanDalen]

My 2004 Mazda MX-5 doesn't have A/C just like 90% of all

[@thomasboldt4669]

I had a ‘72 Pontiac Grand Ville that was absolutely amazing. Sold it on eBay to a guy in Norway back in 2001. Gosh I miss that car. It was as long as a Chevy Suburban. 455 V8. It ain’t all about speed.

[@robertcooper29]

Hard tops are cocoons; rag tops surround you with the sounds of driving. Will never sell my NC Miata! C

[@wadeguidry6675]

NB Here, I agree!

[@sabz_bhp]

Na here! I agree

[@tyronicusmaximus4230]

NB checking in

[@zaurkomachkov520]

Fun fact: the z4 coupe is actually heavier than the z4 roadster

[@liny2sd]

HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Fucking great!!!!!

[@devjono]

lol you got me at bird shit. No freakn convertible for this family

[@sothbeachboy2195]

I’m rewatching this video because the last time I watch this I was super duper high

[@thecianinator]

I just bought a convertible and I'm watching this video super duper high right now

[@jadesded]

rewatching because I'm buying a convertible & remembered this vid existed... also super duper high rn

[@Montepel]

@@jadesded plot twist - all convertible owners are super high, and this fact makes convertibles even more cooler than they are ;)

[@dwightdawson3578]

I was the proud owner of a 1969 Plymouth Road Runner convertible. 1 of only 2,869 ever built. I drove it almost 100,000 miles with a constant smile on my face. Bought it used for $2,100, sold it for $4,200. That was a great car!

[@daddyjankie]

*Thanks For Devaluating My Car* Now I Gotta sell it Cheaper🚗

[@joelpennington5200]

XD

[@-POISON-]

Having driven a few, I can honestly say convertibles are awesome. You just need to be in one to realize it.

[@angieemm]

I have an 88 RX7 turbo-swapped convertible, as well as a Jeep LJ with the dual top option. I pretty much just keep the hardtop. I've never had a top slashed, but it's because I leave the doors unlocked and/or keep the window down a bit. It's just normal to keep everything in a bag and not leave items worth anything in the vehicle; not even my insurance card! Pretty much everything in this video seems true to me, even though I love having the tops down in my vehicles.

[@tmolson4615]

“They shit right in your mouth” 😂😂 I love Nolan

[@ShaneCharlesProductions]

Convertibles allow to know what's going on around you... Hardtop drivers have a tendency to disconnect with what's happening around them, I know, they almost hit me all the time!

[@wotwott2319]

Pretty sure what's actually making someone disconnect with what's happening around them is the bmw/mercedes they're driving.

[@lilreaper_ori4807]

One car that no one EVER talks about and it the PERFECT convertible roadster. SLK230 R170-R171 chasis. These cars are a hard top convertible with a clean look, cheap price, and good enough size in the trunk with the roof up or down

[@Hydratz]

I think my fav convertible is the 1959 Cadillac Eldorado one

[@TheBroughamGamer]

Check the Cadillacs from the mid 70s to, they look really good as a convertible

[@blvckskull7954]

i salute ya!!

[@g2.alvarez]

I daily drive a vert, I love it lol🤷‍♂️

[@RM-gc4zk]

Same here, E36 325 vert is my daily

[@bunsonhoneydew9099]

After a resto for six years, I finally got my 1979 Alfa Spyder on the first day of summer this year. Great, right? In Austin Texas June, July and August are too hot to drive ragtops! Can't wait till fall when temps fall below 90. Convertibles are great third or fourth cars. Have something better to drive for a daily.
