A question I posed to another group might find interest here. In the old car game, the convertible version of a car usually brings more than the coupe. Can you think of any cars in which the coupe ve

Well, off the top of my head, a '63 Split Window Coupe has got to be more valuable. I can't think of others at this time. -- Paul T. Root E/Mail: proot@iaces.com 600 Stinson Blvd, Fl 1S PAG: +1 (877)

Ah the dreaded self response. This got me thinking why. Most convertibles are valued higher than their coupe counterpart because, generally, there are more coupes than convertibles. With a few notabl

Would the TR4 surry top qualify as a coupe? I thought when the surry top option was purchased the car had no soft top. I think the TR4 surry top is worth more. Paul: <<<snip>>> Could the other coupe

I hadn't thought of it, but maybe it shouldn't qualify - not really a coupe. Otherwise you'd have to argue that the Porsche 911 Targa was a coupe, which would make the regular 911 a what.......coupe

The surrey top was a weather option (just like a removable hardtop), not a body style though, so it may not fit Bill's intentions here. To answer your question, yes the surrey topped TR4s are worth c
