I love the way their cars look especially the Challenger
I was interested in the '08 CTS and the owner sent me a couple pics but they sold it
I guess i was just wondering how people with CTS's feel about the convertible and whatnot, what do you guys think? |

but newer 4-door cars just don't seem to be able to pull off the convertible look like the old ones (60's). my opinion. |

Seriously? I think there would be many safety, therefore, potential legal issues to consider since it is not OEM and involves structural changes.
Might need to have passengers sign a waiver of liability / responsibility in case of a roll over.... |

Just saying... |

I like the CTS convertible, I've been to the company (Coach Builders), they were building three of them in June when I had some maintenance done om my 2000 ElDorado Convertible that they converted back in 2000. The only issue is the cost, some $19,000.00 for the conversion. That's like another car! We'll see how much money i can save in AF this year... |

Maybe it's just the colour or the pix but, to me, it looks way blander than the stock sedan. Now that you tell me the price, I am even more apalled that it comes with a vinyl tonneau - but I suppose that a fibreglass lid would require some expensive hardware that would put the price even further out of whack. |
