Somehow those drives are the most memorable
I remember some less wet ones with old cars, like with a Zastava 1100 that had no brakes (engine braking mostly, complemented by hand brake at low speeds) - certainly makes you feel very much alive 
Hope the road is not salted ....
... otherwise the beautiful car will have a very quick death. Marcus
It does have a roof
Which is not watertight at all, but better something than nothing I would say. I\'ve got the same car, although against all purists rules in it\'s a Vintage 356 Speedster (reproduction), and have driven it (had no choice) through that kind of weather too....
Yes, driving a vintage car, rear wheel drive, under the rain...
Is funny, sometimes... Free style, if I may say so... Like with my P 1800E. Best, Nicolas

It's helpful to know of the issue in advance
And not first when you really need to slow down. But an excellent exercise in mindful driving - you definitely made sure to be aware of all that was going on around you
Love your speedster.
Very cool gen or not. Enjoy that beauty on the the road every day. All about the details period correct. And no hood straps is very cool. Bravo.
Both are cool, the car and the weather. But
I certainly dare not drive with the hood opened under that kind of weather condition.
It's not really cold
as there's no snow and ice. Clearly optimal conditions for a cabriolet. Best, Kari
I know all about that!
We live in one of the coldest populated places on earth and we have in the family 911 Targa GTS and BMW 435iX Cabriolet. Ferrari California T is on the way and the ordered Bentayga has a panorama roof just like our Cayanne. I guess that when the summer is...
Lol this is good!....
The only similar thing matching that photograph was that some time ago in the news they showed a couple of people drove newer looking convertible to drive through window with minus twenty celsius and a heavy snowfall in Canada. Cheers Edward
Driven many times...
...in the teeming rain in a 61 convertible. It's 50/50 as to whether the roof up is better or not. It leaks, it fogs up, you look through a smear instead of a windscreen.... or roof down, it is just wet. And a little colder. But at least it dries out fast...
I drove my Lotus Elan in the rain once. Only once.
Windows fogged. Wipers flailed uselessly. Top leaked. And that is my 1991 Elan. I bought a new top in 1995 when I restored the 1971 Elan. Foolish me. It\'s still in the wrapping paper. My best sporty drive in the rain was 25 miles through an Arizona thund...
