About 2 months ago my Wife and I were run of the road and flipped our Sebring JXi over with the top down. The driver never stopped and left us for dead chassis side up. Now people are paying more attention to our Xfire Roadster than the road. We have had numerious near misses. I have seen people almost hit other cars while looking at our Xfire Roadster. I now have to be extremely observant while driving. Below are pics from the Sebring accident, My Wife and I were extremly lucky to walk away with only minor injuries.
I must say I do enjoy the attention that our cars draw, but it is now getting dangerous.
That is the risk one takes with owning a convertible. Even in a side impact a convertable is much less safe (less rigidity) as compared to a coupe. In the rare event of a rollover, you're really in trouble. You guys were extemely lucky. Did you lean forward or lay over or something?
