What Should I Buy: Convertibles

Part II in our series of helping you pick the car that's best for you. It's the question everyone has -- what car should I buy? Well, in order to solve the problem of what car people should buy, we've devised a five-part series called: What Should I Buy? Today we tackle convertibles. Using hard science we've analyzed past purchases by the majority of buyers and come up with these answers based on the potential buyer's personalities:

I'm dull
Toyota Solara

It's for my wife
VW Beetle

I'm a doctor
Chevrolet Corvette

...no, a plastic surgeon
Mercedes Benz SL 600

...in a trauma center
Volvo C70

It's for my mistress
Lexus SC430

..She's better looking than that
Jaguar XK8

I like to drive:
Honda S2000

Okay, once again we'll get serious. It's very hard to pick a convertible without knowing all your exact needs but the ones we think are the pick of the litter are:

Under $25k	Under $35k	Under $45k	Under $55k
Mazda Miata	Honda S2000	BMW Z4	Porsche Boxster

Got different needs? Okay we can handle that:

Family oriented	Luxury	Performance	Oh sweet mama!
Volvo C70	BMW 6-series	Dodge Viper	Mercedes SL 600

I agree with Dave, the Corvette is a much better car than the Porsche Boxster. One would have to upgrade to the Carrera or the Turbo to compete with the Corvette.

Yes, I'd buy a Boxster over a bend-in-the-middle Corvette vert any day. Now a Vette with a roof, that's another story.

No it's not, I'd wait for Cayman RS.

Very mature post GALA, it's clear why you choose the American breed over the Europeon.

Don't forget the Mustang. It's gorgeous, affordable and the 2005 ragtop is better than ever!
