    Default can a man look good in a convertible?

    So here i am, just picked up the new demo from work, driving roof down playing a bit of Elvis Costello and The Attractions, i stop at the traffic lights and i see this group of kids pointing and laughing at me. It wasn't until i caught my reflection in a shop window that i realised how tragic i looked.

    Is it just me or can single men not look good in a convertible? Im still young(ish) thought i looked pretty good, but seeing myself i thought 'you look like a dick!)

    ill look forward to your thoughts

    JB

    IMO, conertibles are cool for either gender at any age. If you want one, I say go for it.

    If you drive this, you're as manly as Clint Eastwood.


    If you drive this, you just gave Nathan Lane a rimjob.

    Yes, in a roadster (2 seat). i.e. Cadillac XLR, Mercedes SL, Viper srt10.

    No in 4 seater. i.e. Mercedes CLK, Toyota Solara, BMW 3series, Lexus SC...etc..

    I have a convertible and I've never been laughed at that I know of. Maybe they were laughing at the Elvis Costello music. Younger kids don't like that type of music. I laugh at my parents 60's music and kids now laugh at my 80's music. Besides if you like the car than drive it, who cares about a bunch of kids anyway!

    That Miata might not have enough headroom for you... I don't mean for giving head. You're pretty tall.
