I've always been of the impression that only certain people should buy soft tops. I've always felt that men of a certain disposition should avoid soft tops all together, unless they're a classic.

Men like me hehe IE Mid 30's (christ, I'm 33 soon, thats middish isnt it?), over weight and lacking of hair on top of your head.

Would this be a fair assessment?

It only matters if you give a st what anyone else thinks.

Also 33 is early 30's I am 37 and as much as it pains me, that is late 30's :-)

Man up and buy whatever you want.

This and only this. If you want one, get one. If you don't, don't. If you have one and don't want to put the roof down today, then that's fine too.

Seriously? Car are not gender specific if you are comfortable in who you are.

Get the biggest flashiest convertible you can, young ladies will then talk to you at petrol stations.

Only pretty, thin women between 21 and 55 should drive a convertible.
