I'm thinking hats, I have a pretty receded hairline and keep my hair mega-short.
Hard to find hats that protect the ears, neck, arms and knees
New car, G37 convertible?

Trust me - once you buy a convertible, the weather turns against you.Can't wait until another warm day comes.

Nope. No Alfa's here
that's not true. Alfa = Fiat = owns chrysler. They are bringing both Fiats and Alfa back states side.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're using the future tense, right? Can't buy one today.

Can't get Alfas here, nor Lotus.
So I guess all the Lotus Elise and the dealers in and around town where I live are a figment of my imagination. Then there is the fact that the Tesla cars are all Lotus Evoras with an electric engine switch. www.lotuscars.com is their US website. Though, I probably wouldn't get a lotus for a daily driver. They are great, fun cars but are pretty spartan even by economy car standards.

No not today. The news is that they will be producing a new RWD spider at the same plant that does the 300 and Challenger cars for the 2012 model year, so 18 months away. 2012 is looking like a good year for people who like spider/roadster models. VW group has a nice one coming in multiple trims (VW, Audi, Porsche), new Z4, Alfa, etc plus the new Lotus (which is suppose to be light, stiffer, and have a lot more power).

Tesla is based on Lotus Elise, not Evora.
He's right though, Lotus are apparently available in the states...my bad.
Still would have had to be a 4-seater, and we couldn't afford that in Lotus.

Hard, here she is behind my car:
so how impossibly small are the rear seats? Don't know if you looked at the Lexus SC430 but the seats in it are basically there only for insurance purposes, you can't even fit a car seat in it.
My kids fit back there fine, and I rode back there just to see if I could...and I could.
Can't quite call it comfortable, but I've ridden in much worse. The kids have no complaints about the backseats so far.

What about the wind factor? Rear seats in convertibles tend to get more wind than the front seats. So are they comfortable both top down with wind and top up with headroom and fear of flatulence?
