And here’s my submission
My wonderful Mercedes 250 SL from 1967. Manual 4 speed. 150 hp from a 2.5 litre 6 cylinder engine. 
I have owned it for some 15 years or so. It’s such a friendly and easily driven car that produces a lot of smiles on fellow drivers and pedestrians.
Before this one, I had a dark grey 230 SL that I had to trade in for a wagon when my twins arrived.
My wife has had a couple of Mini Cabriolets, one black and one light-blue with a jeans-colored hood.

This is a fun-loving group: Let's see your convertibles
Show us your love for impractical, water-leaking, soft-top convertibles of all persuasions please! (it will give me time to get my list together) Here's one of my favorites, a Buick Riviera V8 Convertible circa 1984 with FWD Cheers Cazalea ...
The only impractical thing is the hardtop convertible roof mechanism
I know they reduce cargo room a bit, but that's okay. What worries me is my pals at the "collision estimating factory" where I used to work, tell me they seldom can be made to work properly after a good smack in the side or bump in the rear end. That's no...
You're selling the volvo?
Lookimg forward to see what replaces it! Gone but not forgotten: 2008 mx5 for me, sunflower yellow was a nice color with plenty of pop, never seen so many insects attracted by any other car and I dont mean on the windshield. Great memories driving around ...
I looked at an Elan in Norfolk Mustard
Very similar to your Miata color. I liked the color but not that particular car ...
My convertible list (subject to correction and additions)
Austin Healy 100-6 -- I just found this picture of a car I'd completely forgotten Buick Electra 225 - rear quarter panel so long it was a 3/4 panel! Corvair Monza 140 Convertible Citroen Mehari Jeepster Commando 1972 Jeepster 1968 91 Lotus Elan, 71 Lotus ...
That's front wheel drive
They only came in white or this red. My car had sport wheels, this has Riviera wire caps. They could have a v6 turbo or v8. Otherwise they were all loaded. ...
Knowing how the US cars of that era handled, I can't imagine
what a FWD must have been... quite special surely
That is a fun car to drive
Although never brought to the States I still have a friend here who owns one (shhh) and another buddy in the UK with one. The England pal has had lots of leaks and electrical issues but still keeps it happily in his garage with a few other crazy cars. I d...
Mine just runs perfectly - in all aspects! 👍🏻🍀☀️😃
No leacks, no issues what so ever! On the contrary: Happy 225kkm already in 17 years with around 110PS from 700ccm (not original) 🙈😇💪🏻🤪 ...
Other. The tuning has been done from a German and Swiss guy, over months!
Main aspect was the improvement of the gearbox behaviour. Especially in the automatic modus it simply wasn‘t good. The performance part had several options e.g. even more power but only with upgraded clutch etc.
I’m BMW roadster fan
My former Z3 And Z4 I really miss Z3. That was proper roadster. ...
Very nice, thanks for sharing it
I was taken on a ride with a BMW enthusiast/employee in an M roadster. He felt it was the most fantastic car ever made. It was perhaps the scariest ride I ever had and no doubt plenty of power! That was a hard top, not soft top. Very neat car though. I th...
M roadsters are wild indeed. I fully agree.
My both Z3 and Z4 are powered by 3.0 V6. Perfect engine for cruising around.
Nice!
I have driven a friend's car a couple times and have wanted one, but the Lotuses are already here and I can't manage any more sporty cars. When we had our Fiat 500e, I drove the new Fiat version and liked it but again my wife prohibited me from even think...
MX5 my only car
I have in the past referred to it as the sensible daft car! Went on a few track days last year which were great fun. It also showed car far more capable than I am! Cheers JML
My wife's convertible is more practical than mine...
My wife's Jeep Limited. Although the entire hardtop is removable we've never removed the whole thing, we always just removed the front panels. But last year I bought a folding section for the front seats since it's more convenient than removing the front ...
What a nice pair of convertibles
My kind of vehicles; I could be happy with either. That top is just like the one on my Citroen 2CV which I didn't count. I will have to add in all the Citroens!! Mike ...
Nice theme for the end of the summer!
I shared some years with these three: This one was particularly fugly - very fun with its digital dash like the knight rider - K2000. ... and my next one, maybe ...
Long gone now, sadly
Hope these count in this thread. My son in my former Triumph Spitfire 1500 many years ago. I kept this car preserved for a long while and sold it to a collector fairly recently. Plus my dad's old Fiat Balilla outside his dad's house in 1938! Dad later tou...
My first and favorite car was a 1969 Triumph Spitfire
Until I had a head on collision at an intersection with another car that was making an illegal turn. The bonnet of the car slid over the windscreen, otherwise I could have been decapitated.

The Mercedes-Benz SL models appearing here are great
I "babysat" one of those cars, a 250 if I remember correctly, for about 6 months for a friend who was moving house and had nowhere to store it. I liked the convertible top arrangement, and the solid feeling of the body (unlike many convertibles). My only ...
Yes, they are wonderful!
Solid and fun. Agree on the gearing. 1st and 2nd are just steps you need to go through. 3rd and 4th are pretty good - the range of 4th is crazy, from 90/100 km/h to 180 . No, I haven’t touched the gearset. Interesting idea as the engine seems quite willin...
Long felt the best-looking cars . . .
. . . ever are first-generation Mercury Cougar convertibles. Art ...
Still a fun to drive
I love my trusty late 1986 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible all year long ;-) Ä ...
maybe...
But you would not be able to appreciate the magnificent interior, lovely red seatbacks and accents, so well ...
Nice convertible!
Do you have to wash & wax the back of those seats to remain a PCA member in good standing? Cazalea
haha... quite the spec.
I don't think that I would have the brass to order it that way as a new car, happy to pick it up though in the aftermarket pretty spectacular looking...
