Great Day For A Convertible

We had a beautiful fall day in Ohio today. I took the convertible to work today - a bit cool for the top down this morning but what a great drive home. Top down, sun setting over incredible fall foliage, open air, exhaust note as the soundtrack, what could be better?

I'm with you! I just traded my coupe for a new cabrio and now care a lot more about the forecast than I previously did! Crisp Fall air with the top down and heated seats on = perfection!

Here in Austin, we are in the middle of best convertible weather. Upper 60's, low 70's. My top has hardly been up as of late (except for some occasional rain)!

Looks like a couple of Austinites here...I'd move in a heartbeat if my business didn't keep me in Dallas! Talkinghead --- what front bumper do you have on your car? I was thinking about getting the GT3 bumper for my '06 until I traded it for a new '09 the other day, but didn't know there was a GT3-style bumper with LEDs if I'm looking at your pic correctly.

Stock C2S, just the lighting makes it look that way I guess.
