Not MG related, but I figure MG guys are the smartest car owners, so .... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Question - name a car that is worth more as a coupe than as a convertible.

I have two possible answers and there may well be more. No particular geographic restrictions.

 

[BlueRidge1]

63 Corvette

 

[John Loftus]

Mercedes 300SL

 

[ccougill]

shelby cobra daytona coupe

 

[kennypinkerton]

I'll second the 55-57 300SL

 

[PAUL161]

Mercedes Gull Wing

 

[rulle7]

Any car with rusty sills.

 

[Steve_S]

XK-150

 

[Banjo]

definatly 300 SL Gullwing, and most likley a split window Stingray. I know, they've both been said, but I agree.
I don't know if the Daytona Coupe qualifies. That was a radically different car from the roadster,and the coupe was not really a "production"car, but If you count them both as the same "Cobra" then I'd agree there too.

 

[Dave Richards]

second on the cobra daytona

 

[Joe Reed]

How about an M.G. PA through TA? Airline coupes are pretty rare and pricy...

 

[Roger]

Some of the rare Coupe bodies on Bugatti T57 Chassis.

You guys are good.

Gullwing Mercedes, 63 Vette, and Daytona coupe are the (my) answers.

Guess I'll have to think up a really hard one!
