Thanks for the info guys.
Sounds like the Camaro would be more than satisfactory.
I've decided that, for the time being, the hell with my doctors . I'm going to keep the Vett as long as I can and, maybe, if I need more cargo capacity I'll just eject my wife.
Merry Christmas to all.

Brain buckets...well, it's gonna sound hypocritical after my above statement, but anything minus a full face helmet is a waste of time. LOL...but at 140, I don't think it matters that much if you wreck.
I miss my bikes. Loved the 996 but hated the maintenance costs. The 1125R was awesome, too. I think it might be time to "surprise" the wife with a nice, used VFR 800. The couch never looked so good.

top down and windows up is pretty lame 
the wind is not bad at all, honestly the worst part about the convertible is the rear window. its very small and there are HUGE blind spots, it makes highway driving a little exciting 
make sure you leave a bottle of sunscreen in the car though it didn't take long for me to get sunburn.

new convertable top
I just put a new cloth top on my 02 Camaro from canvas experts in Sacramento they did such a good job for $1,100. They said don't put it down for a week. That new top is so pretty I'll probably never put it down. I do have trouble sleeping at night worrying about some tweaker cutting it open again. The person who did the top does 200 a year or so and he tells everyone who owns a convertible to leave the door unlocked.

I bought a new '95 Camaro convertible in the fall of '94 and within a year I had pieces falling off the top mechanism, one of which poked a hole through the convertible top. The dealer refused to replace it and that was the last time I bought a GM convertible….
Does anyone else have to leave their Camaro out in the winter weather?
