that not true.
My smart car convertible is higher than non convertible.
same gose for s2000.
Lotus will be because not many ppl what them and it is only manual.
take a look at the old Z4 convertible they are still quite good price.

I will not get the old Z4 do not like the intee
S2000 is one of few exceptions

But Z4 and slk have high depreciation rate than the normal 4drs salon especially when you buy it new.
That guy had over 20 years in 2nd hand market btw
And he suggests if i get a covertable, i better buy 2nd hand instead of new to reduce the loss in the first depreciation
(Well...maybe he wants me to buy from him )

HONG KONG, you rock!!!! Woot, woot!! Can't wait to see you all. Although we are sheduled to be there on Feb. 26 and we have tickets in hand, the date could change if they delay our pilot build. Fingers crossed that I can join your meet. I will have a better grasp on it by end of January. Happy Holiday season to everybody!!!!!
