300 convertible

[BluMag]

I was at a local dealer on friday and had to take pictures of this. For $70K you can have it. It looked pretty sweet, unfortunatley I had to take the pics with my phone.

Wish they would stop making these overpriced conversions with the ugly b-pillar still in place!

I was just thinking the same exact thing... The B pillar looks odd...

Yeah, but to leave it in place seems to be the most viable way to cut some costs when doing the conversion...

The concept convertible shown last year didn't have the B-Pillar, and it looks significantly better.

They Have To Leave The Piller Because If They Dont The Car Would Break In Half. So I Was Told

flashes me back to some kind of Barbie car for some reason.
is that called a sissy bar?
I could see a Kendoll lokkin dude with a sweater tied around his neck pimpin it.

I woud not buy a convertable without that Bar in place, the car weighs 4 thousand pounds...

Would you want to die simply because your car rolled over???

Well... if my car rolls over, then I'll be darned.

Plenty of convertibles don't have roll bars. It's not a requirement.

But on the flip side a lot of convertables have pop up roll bars....

The Rev votes no!

Yep, if I was on the "flip side" that would seem like a good idea.

Weight doesn't matter....the car could weigh 1,000 pounds and kill you just as easily if it rolled over on top of you....and your chances would be greater because a 1,000 pound car is going to flip a lot easier than a 4,000 pound car.

I drove a Convertible for years and never once came close to flipping it.

Besides, with 4,000 pounds rolling over, do you really thing that pillar bar is going to hold the weight of the car?

B-pillar - revolting.
