I think a lot driver would prefer convertible car (topless) then normal boring 3 box car but is hard for most first time buyer, due to Convertible Coupe ? Auto soft top ? Manual soft top ?

Let analysis,

Coupe convertible will have the most flexible compare with any soft top car, due to solid chassis, drive like normal coupe, but the disadvantage is obvious, pricey, heavy and very high maintenance cost ….. (BMW 3 serious, SLK, SL and bla)
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
Auto Soft top, is the most popular in the market due to, almost every car manufacturer have their convertible car with automatic soft top, is simple, just unplug two button (expensive car is just one click) and a click, also lower cost to built…. then free air (depend where, ok) for everyone, but disadvantage will be noise, insecure (some people found number protection on thin layer of leather), number theft protection ….
