I've seen em at car shows like NOPI Nationals. They look alright i guess. You are talking MAD money to get it done.

Yeah they are pretty ok. But Mods take money and that would take alot of it. I am not made of it and it don't grow on trees. But it looks ok.

I've seen some in real life, mainly 96-00 but they look so tight.
A lot of money obviously, this everyone knows but opinion wise they look really good.

I've seen the chop. It looks weird. And since I don't like convertibles that aren't real roadsters, I wouldn't like a convertible Civic. My ex had a convertible... waste of money. I'll take a sunroof or t-tops.

i think a convertable 7th Gen would be awsome, like with a replaceable hard top that still has the sunroof even!! yea!

I wish Honda would do a factory convertible or T-tops on the vic.
Kind of like the caviler or the sunfire.
That would be sweet

it depends on how it looks and if it looks good or not, IMO I would not get a convertable on a civic cuz they are too small for it and the looks aren't that good. Even though the z4 is small it has good looks compared to the civic lol. Oh ya and yes performance
