still shitty.

If you have a hole just get a new line a couple hose clamps, tighten them down and fill up the reservoir and your problem is fixed. 10 minutes and your done. here... hit this doobie a few times B4 you start , it'll be more funner.

I am currently without a car and have been since 2003. The car I had was driving was a 2003 Seabring Convertible. The police took it after arresting me and I never got it back.

That's about to change. The court has ordered my 4 count complaint into arbitration on 5-22-07. On that day, the arbitrator will hear both sides of the story and order an award in my favor of course. Arbitration is part of the out of court settlement process.

Since I will be getting may car replaced by the city, I have been comparing cars and will start going on test drives as soon as I get my check.

I love convertibles, have always had one, and will pick up another one. I would love a 350 horse power Mustang, but the 5 year depriciation of nearly $15,000.00 is a big turn off. Next in line is the 2008 Seabring. It has decent power, but the fuel costs are too high.

Jeep Wrangler. Since my live is going through an overhaul, I will be moving to a different locate to avoid contact with the crappy police in this area, most likely out west in mountainous terrain, and areas with dirt roads. The Jeep is a poorly made vehicle according to JD powers, is an expensive to run SUV, and you basically get what you expect. A box on wheels. It's too bad too. I don;t mind the box effect of a Jeep, it's the 2 star quality rating that scares me off.

This brings me to the leader of the back for Convertibles between 25-35K. The Mazda Miata MX-5 Convertible. It's one of the best rated convertibles available, and only loses 10K in resale value over 5 years. I'm not going with the "rag top" version, I want the "hard top" retractable roof version with all the bells and whistles. The biggest drawback is the lack of cargo space.

The final car on the list is the Toyota Camry Convertible. It's also one of the top convertibles on the market. I 5 years, it's value with be less than the Miata, but it has a back seat and therefore more cargo space.

Well that's what I am not driving. I don;t have a car, and do not know when I will get the repalcement.

None of those sound like a very good option.

What about a used 335xi convertible. AWD for snowy roads... 300 HP... better than anything else you mentioned.... in the same price range....

great suggestion, but it's a little higher in price than the others. of course, you'd also be getting a lot more from it. including the "status symbol" of a german lux, that for some reason is so terrible. anyway, i still second this recommendation.

UTG brand AK-74 model.

From personal experience, I prefer the Guarder sets for an A.E.G. '74.
