Alright /o/. What is the best convertible? Only rules are,

>second hand.
I think your 5k budget kinda made that statement unnecessary. z3 with an I6 if you can or a Miata.

>>17354128
miata or MR-S depending if you want engine in front or middle.

>>17354133
I don't fit in a miata, Im tall.
And I can't get one for under 5 grand with a 1.8 and power windows.

>>17354143
So...Z3 is your only choice then.

>>17354128
Miata/MX-5, or a 6cyl E36 or E46 convertible. Maybe an E93 if you get lucky.

>>17354168
I only found 1 locally that fits the bill.
There is nothing else?

>>17354177
Nope, not unless you want to go convertible vs roadster, then you have BMW 3 series.

Also travel to buy a car. Every car I've bought has been a 3hr one way drive.

>>17354204
Roadster is fine, anything with an open top counts.
Not a t-top or stuff though.

Z3 or 3 series, get a I6 model, you'll appreciate smoking miatas

986 Boxster Spyder is the best convertible. Also acceptable are 981 Boxster GTS, 981 Boxster Spyder.

They both meet the manual/rwd requirements, but in what world are you going to get the "best" convertible for < 5k?

What about a Porsche coxster?
Or is 5 grand too cheap?

>>17354272
>986 Boxster Spyder

S2000?
Under 5k would be stretching it but it would be possible

>>17354273
About 7 grand for a decent non-S one. A bit more now, because it's summer and demand has gone up a fair bit.

>>17354128

lol for $5K you can basically afford a convertible Sunfire or PT Cruiser or a beat to shit Miata with very high mileage. You're too poor to afford maintenance on a used BMW or Porsche dumbfuck. But seriously, a New Edge Mustang or 4th gen F-body is probably as good as it gets for $5K. Keep saving up

>>17354128
A jeep you cu ck

>>17355554
I'd rather kill myself.

>>17355411
I can afford a bmw just fine. I'm just saying 5000 because I can get about that much in a month.
I will be looking to buy before the end of summer

>>17355395
The one I pictured is $3500, but it's 140k miles and has that dent in the rear

>>17355637
Damaged rear quarter panels are a real pain in the dick, 140k miles is no problem for a Boxster as long as the previous owners kept up on maintenance though.

>>17355358
where tf do you live
s2ks are around 20k here
