Targa or Convertible[ 15 vote(s) ]
1.Targa Top 8 / 53%
2.Convertible 2 / 13%
3.Areo Top 5 / 33%

Hi, Im getting a SW20 MR2 within the next year and I love any car that has a Targa roof......I think it is better than a convertible cause u still have the stylish look of the lift back/rear window/boot and u still get the wind in ur hair Cool....
What do u guys think..

i had a bit of a dispute about this on supraforums a while ago

i was always under the impression that
aero = removable top(like on mk4 supras)
targa = like two removable panaels that leaves a bar down the middle
convertable....well i'm sure there isnt any dispute over this

but anyways, apparently people mix and match targa and aero top alot....

anywho
i chose aero as i personally like them

Yeah i was under the impression that only supras had Areo tops and it was a whole removable roof section with no bar through the middle....Honda CRX has the same sort of setup....And a targa roof is with 2 removable sections leaving a bar thru the middle........correct me if im wrong.

Then they would be an aero-top...or a targa top, not a true coupe.

There is one thing thats better though...a coupe (or hatch, I'll stick em both in the same category for this topic) with a sunroof Very Happy

Sunroof adds weight. Says the guy with the sunroof... Smile

But sunroof is a good compromise if you really need that wind-in-hair experience.

some convertibles look shmick too. take for example the ferrari 355. it comes in all 3 forms. convertible, targa or aero and coupe. and from watching movies like the rock or bulletproof its hard to disagree with the convertible look.
