I used to ride a motorcycle and had a convertible car at one point. I love feeling the air as I’m driving. Wife doesn’t want me riding a motorcycle, what’s the best option for an open top/convertible car that doesn’t look douchey/like you’re having a midlife crisis when you’re over 40? Was thinking a Jeep wangler, but everyone says how uncomfortable and not good for everyday they are

Tell the wife that she can't do makeup if you can't drive a motorcycle. That will solve it i guess.

I think you should go with the spider if thats the look you enjoy. Much better vibes than newer models.

Yes on going vintage. Even an old Porsche Boxster is pretty close to that feeling, with big bonus that they won’t cost nearly as much. Smaller and lower to the ground is key. I love jeeps and owned a TJ with a 5-speed but it does NOT feel like a motorcycle.

Airplane cesna for ultimate feeling of air

I recommend a Prius 😗

Very sexyy

911 4S Cab or 911 Turbo Cab. If you’re going to go convertible and sporty that’s the only legitimate option. Everything else is a cheap imitation.

Just get what you want and own it.
A lot of nicer convertibles sit in a garage for 10 years, so you can get a good deal on a near vintage one.

I was about to talk trash about my truck driving friends and blame them for my heatwave related problems.

I'll just ask them what if the climate change believers are right and see what they say.

How did he get over his apparent aversion to Black men enough to go and marry one? Where would he be if he hadn't had a change of heart?
