....nah cabs are fine, quite clearly a lot of people on this chat group feel their sexuality is in conflict so are forced in to a coupe.
having owned both my rationale for choosing a coupe last time round was that it supposedly more of a 'drivers tool', lighter, faster and better handling.
Truth is its difficult to insure any 50k plus car for track day use, and those are pretty much the only conditions you would notice the lower weight or handling bonus of the coupe.
Buy want you want, I think the coupes look a bit better with the classic glassline, but then you can hear the engine much better with a drop top and enjoy the summer weather, or going for a more leisurely drive.
Personally I cant tell much difference between my old 996 coupe and new cab handling or performance wise. If fact hardtop on or roof up, it feels exactly like the old coupe but with the volume of the engine doubled.

Hey Benno, I has (and was proud of) a purple 968 cab with 'raspberry' leather interior - it may have been the biggest lasses motor this side of an MGF but the gals loved it. Never had it so good. 
and they certainly don't get as wet over the 993.
Domster likes to pretend he's Magnum PI at the weekends and is working on the mooootash too, he couldn't afford a Furry-arsei so had to make do with the 944.........which I subsequently bought off him and torched on the drive within two weeks...

The weather over the weekend made me want aircon in the house! It was sooo bloody stuffy and humid. 993 coupe looks the nuts, but the 993 cab looks like a pram. 996 '02 cab look much neater.
Bloke at work has a 355 spyder. Car looks cool, but his balding head popping out buggers things up a tad.
