JUST ROADSTERS – NO PRETENDERS Just because you have two seats and a convertible

JUST ROADSTERS – NO PRETENDERS

Just because you have two seats and a convertible top does not make you a roadster. A roadster is a four wheeled motorcycle. They are not overly powerful. They are not overly fast. They just FEEL fast and powerful because they’re small and light and you feel connected to both the car and the road. With the top down you are part of the great outdoors. And you FEEL it.

The list of available roadsters is:

ALFA ROMEO SPIDER

BMW Z4/Z8

FIAT BARCHETTA

GTM SPYDER

HONDA S2000

MAZDA MIATA

MG TF

PANOZ ESPERANTE

PORSCHE BOXSTER

GM SKY/SOLSTICE

TOYOTA MR2

TVR TAMORA/TUSCAN

WISEMANN RX

The Panoz, TVR and Wisemann are all cars I’d love to own. Although you dont really own great sports cars. You get lucky enough to hold onto a bit of automotive history for a few years before passing it on to someone else. Sort of like a the Stanley Cup or something. 🙂

CUTS:

=============

I cut the following because they may be sports cars, but they are not roadsters. You cannot take a coupe, give it a soft top, and call it a roadster. It’s a pretender.

If you have a supercar it’s not a roadster. Its a sports car or an imitation race car. Although any number of ferraris I’m sure could make the cut.
