camaro is the one i like too. but the rliability is ranked as bad by the above report. more expensive than mustang. even more horse power, xixi...

no idea for the high end. they are not only a spirit, but also standing for wealth. so not stand for me :)

i tried once the bmw z3, it's ok. but at that time i was driving too carfully because i didn't want to crash it, so, no fun...

u could mention the honda s2000 as between the lower and higher end. 2.0l is a little bit small but the honda's engine is perfect outstanding. and the 9000 rpm is the fastest among the all convertibles as a big supplement. it looks so great that can compare with viper. the price is also in the middle.

hope the above is useful to u.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
