枫下家园 / 爱车一族 / have a plan to buy a convertible recently. I have considered three models each for both lower end and higher end convertibles:lower end:1) toyota MR-2 spyder 2) Mazda miata 3)chevy camaro.
higer end 1) Prosche Boxter 2) BMW Z3 4) Chevy Corvette
I don't have experience on any of the above models. I want to glean as much imformation as possible before making the decision. Comments on reliability, handling, and price are greatly appreciated.

my select: lower end _____MR-2 , higher end ___Corvettemr-2 is really cool and nice car, center engine, RWD
z3 and boxter are lower level than Corvette, Corvette is NO. 2 in usa, only lower than VIPER

thanks a lot, flying2u and also beavis , miew.I have put mustang into consideration, its list price is not bad, only a little bit more expensive than spyder and miata, somebody in a car forum also suggested I should look at Misubishi Eclipse, it seems good too. I guess I'm gonna focus on the lower end convertibles because I might need to leave North America quite soon , and the high end convertibles lose more in depreciation.

我以前开过一二手corvette, 开起来倒是很爽,但不知怎么老有这样那样的毛病,后来只好再卖掉. 车太豪华了, 在机械部分附加的东西也多,所以reliability就不行.对于跑车来讲,不要太苛求reliability

thanks for the info. Somebody suggested me look at Honda S2000.Do you have any comment on that model? I looked at the engine and standard options, it's almost as good as a corvette, yet the MSRP is at least 10K US lower than corvette, just about the same as my truck! BTW, a Honda dealer close by is doing S2000 promotion, they offer 4K US cash back for a cash purchase. I am really eying at S2000 now.
