Convertible Cars

CONVERTIBLE CARS
All-Time Top Convertibles
By Walter Johnson
September 2014

In July, a friend emailed me a list of the Top 10 Convertibles. I can't remember the author's name or who published the list. What I do remember is that the top convertible on the list was the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. It's possible that a 60s Mustang was on the list but I believe that I would remember that. After reading the list, the only car that I had heard of or seen was the 2014 Corvette Stingray. I believe the Stingray was a good choice. As an automotive enthusiast that cares more about design than engine purrs, I felt like the list was filled with unpopular and undesirable cars just so that the Stingray would have the top position. From what I remember, no vehicle on the list was appealing to me except for the Stingray. I am surprised that there weren't any comments challenging the author's selection. 

In response to that article, below is a list convertibles. By no means is this a ranking from best to worst or popular to unpopular. My favorite convertible is a triple-white Rolls Royce Corniche so that appears first. The other vehicles appear in the order that they came to my mind. 

Here's my list that I believe has at least one vehicle for everyone: 
1995 Rolls Royce Corniche S
1957 Chevrolet Belair 
1967 Austin Healey 3000 Mark III BJ8
2005 Dodge Viper
1957 Buick Super
2012 Porsche 911 Cabriolet
1998 Mercedes-Benz SL
2005 Nissan 350Z
2002 Chevrolet SSR
1957 Cadillac Series 62
1955 Jaguar XK
1957 Chrysler 300C
1969 Pontiac GTO
1993 Cadillac Allante
2000 Plymouth Prowler
1970 Ferrari Daytona
2008 BMW M6
2007 Saturn Sky
1965 Ford Mustang
2004 Cadillac SLR
1959 Chevrolet Corvette
1986 Ferrari Testarossa
1997 Toyota Supra 
2008 Mazda Miata
1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS
2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray
