The most awful conversion I have ever seen!

Why oh why, do this to such a beautiful car?. The person responsible should be punished.

I have to agree with you. Okay, some items might not be to everyone's liking..like the colour, but other wise the car does not look to bad...at least from the only picture that's on that post.

Since this is 2003 (as opposed to 1803) and this forum is open to all people, not just "Anglo-Saxons," I recommend you refrain from posting such racial comments in the future.

As for the car -- it's not my style, but I've seen worse. Brown is usually a pretty bad color for a car, but it kinda works here with the beige seats and gold trim.

If it had a black top instead, I would like it better. I have seen convertible of the SEC is So Cal when I was living there in the 80's. They really looked nice in a way.

It's just ugly...

This is only my personal opinion: I would be embarrassed to own the car - I hate the rims, wheel arches, and the gold what-ever-that-is on the star and other trim. The roof is the wrong color and, yes, I would at least paint it another color...

While the car could definatly use a different color and a removal of that chrome and gold...I don't really have a problem with it. Its not that bad, and it seems to be in good condition, plus its a euro spec car. Of course that could just be because I used to have an 80 Mustang with a vinyl top and wire wheels(not by choice)...after which every thing looks better.
