Help me decide on a new car

[AAP]

I currently own a BMW Z3 3.0. I do want another convertible as from Nov to April the weather in South Florida is just gorgeous and you want to feel that open air.

I don't want another small convertible so give me some ideas. I looked at a Volva C70 and they are REALLY nice,, the only bad thing however is that they do not hold there resale value. In 2 years they have depreciated 50%. They are cheaper than a Mercedes 320 or 430.

I can afford a CLK 230 but again, I don't want a small convertible. What options are left?

Are you looking at foreign models or domestic ones?

The Audi TT hard top conv. or the Porsche Boxter Conv.

Audi TT and Porsche are way too small. Remember, that is why I want to get rid of my Z3. I do want an import. The Lexus is not worth the money. Test drive one and you will see what I mean.

I have also ruled out Toyota MR2 due to small size.

Jaguar is out of my price range, unless I buy a used one, and I don't like buying used anything.

On one hand though, I saw someone with a customized PT cruiser that was a convertible. Very sharp and unusual. wonder what I would be charged to customize a new one.


Poink - look on a thread here, someone else asked me what I did for a living. Basically I sell doctors to hospitals.

I thought you were going to sell a car for your bail, rather than getting a new one?

Okay, help me out here guys.. OKAY>>>???!!!????

Remember in the second movie Jurassic Park 2... They had these Mercedes that looked like Jeeps? You know, two door, open top, (I can do without the winches on the front) but they were short and stocky in size..... who remembers what those look like? What model of Mercedes is that? I am looking for it now.

Come on and help me out here.

Anal, the Lexus SC430 coupe is probably the best out there right now. It's mid 60K range. it's a hard top but it drops...not a soft top convertible.

You probably don't fit in the Jag if you are over 6 feet tall. I just test drove it last weekend and it was tight. However, it is an amazing car - the convertible is mid 70K's new and they re-sell decently.

A used Jag might not be a bad bet. Jags are rarely abused.


The Jags and the Lexus both have decentlease options - if you throw a few extra grand down at lesae inception, you get it most of it back when it is over, and you get a btter rate of return than you would form most investments.
