Nascarhq...Shut up Dummy!

 

I could have picked either one but, like some others have said, I was first drawn to the look of this car because of the boat-tail rear. The roadster looks fine, but to my eye, the coupe looks better.

Again, there is no wrong choice. The Crossfire is a gorgeous car in any form.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Buy the one YOU like best.

 

Coupe or Roadster - depends on your wants and needs. I like the looks of the coupe better than the roadster, but there's nothing like dropping the top. Also, the coupe didn't really have enough headroom for me.

You can't go wrong either way. Let us know what you decide.

 

ok, Em, so where's the pics of your xf? i don't think dummy requires a capitol D, but maybe in your case it does.

 

Dark gray coupe.
Why? well that is what I thought was the best for me...
Plus it was the closest to the prototype I fell in love with.

 

I struggled the same with this decision. Love lines of the coupe, but was on the fence with both. My wife pushed me gently toward the roadster, and I don't regret it at all. But, I might buy a coupe as well. Just waiting for the right bargain. Maybe an SRT, but would have to remove the fixed spoiler.

 

just go to any nightclub, country club, or gentlemen's club and ask the ladies what they want to ride home in. i'll leave it at that.

 

You'll more than likely get nothing but biased answers here. All the coupe owners say buy the coupe, while the roadster owners obviously have their favorite. It really comes down to what you like best or want most. But really, sports cars are made to be driven with the top down.

 

well looks like I have started a debate and a half... Here is where I am:

I love the concept of a roadster - open sky driving and all, but I know the realities of it... bad weather, hood wear, no boot space - all so that once in a while you can feel cool.

I like to think of the Aston Marton as the quintessential coupe, convertible dilemma, and the fact that James Bond drives a coupe says it all...

As a quick note... my experience of open top driving with women is mixed... mostly they like the idea, but the reality of getting hair blown everywhere, wind burn and sun burn is not their idea of fun.

So if its good enough for Bond, James Bond - it is good enough for me I guess...

Like someone said, I think if I lived in Florida, then the usability of a roadster would be higher, but there is something wrong about putting the hood down in fog with the heater at full belt... the 'cool' left the building a while back in that case.

 

Dude...lighten up will ya. You can get the ladies even without the roadster.

 

I don't know, but I don't like the idea of soft top convertibles...

 

Sidez - I know what you mean - if only it was a Merc style hard top... best of both worlds... that would be perfect !

 

Just wear shoes.

 

A Ferrari?

 

Ferrari - no... and I talk from experience here.

Ferrari attract petrol head males and kids... that is all...

 

Who wouldn't like an F430? Perhaps only the petrol heads would know exactly what it is, but I bet everyone would be staring at it. If only I had $180,000...

 

Maybe UK ladies prefer Aston Martins.
