I don't normally like open top cars that are meant to be tin top as a rule but the 911 993 is the only one I can think of at the minute. The coupe looks nice but the rag top looks better (up).

I agree. I think the 993 cab looks great hood up - better than the coupe. It's kind of half way to a chopped speedster look. Unfortunately I think it looks all wrong when the hood is down.

Also the 944; I think the cab (hood up) looks better than the tin top. And it doesn't look so bad when down.

So the 944 wins.
I think I offended someone before who has the 993 coupe :-)

Fantastic machines and I'd rather have a tin top but looks wise, I think the 993 cab is great hood up.

WTF? First of all you've posted B7 & B8 models which aren't the same and secondly there was no A4 coupe? confused

Maybe the A5 cab vs A5 coupe, but then again i wouldn't say the cab was better than the coupe.
I realised after posting I'd put a B8 picture up (oops), couldn't be bothered to edit. And did cheat with the saloon. Thought I would be pulled up. getmecoat

I'll try again with the 80 Cab and Coupe....

Not sure if it counts due to folding hard top, but for me, it's a close call between the 458 Italia and Spyder. Problem is they both look great.

Maybe in relation to the 2+2 but not the original coupe.


I agree the Alfa Spider looks better than the Brera and I'm no fan of convertibles but that really does look good.

I also prefer the Camaro convertible to the coupe, a trick the Mustang couldn't pull off.

Agree with that. The hard top looks better than the roof dropped imo.

Well gents, there are some good efforts here but none have convinced me yet.

As the OP, my word is THE LAW.

Keep trying.

Very cool soft-top.




I thought about a Zonda but I'm struggling to find a pic with the top up/on.

I wouldn't necessarily say "better than" the original, but the 911 Speedster looks ok with the roof up, and that is coming from a very firm Hardtop fan. I just don't like cabs in general, look too much like or charabancs for me.

Current Mercedes E-class looks better as a cabrio than as a coupe simply because it doesn't have those stupid little fixed rear windows that the coupe has.
