Congrats! Beautiful car.

You bought a convertible. Living in Maine.
I had a cow orker from there and he lovingly referred to it as "9 months of winter and 3 months of damn poor sledding".

#Respect!

Lovely. But I'm shivering already.

@Sig Oris ......don't worry about a vert in Maine. It's -23 outside where I live. My baby is under a cover waiting for Spring. Then it's 8 months of driving weather.......well six great months and a couple with the heater on lol. BTW beautiful color scheme. My 2014 was Oxford white with black. Got sooo many compliments. over the years. Classic "tuxedo" look, black and white - timeless. Like ZZ Top said " Everybody loves a sharp dressed car, I mean man".

Looking sharp! Don't feel too bad about the comments - I have a Wimbledon White convertible myself, and it's been too cold to drive it here in Florida for weeks now...

Thanks. I bought this knowing it’s going to sit December thru April to avoid salt and crud but I still got it undercoated. I was going to order a MY26 In Molten Magenta but my wife worked an amazing deal on this so the money saved can go towards mods. Appreciate the kind words.

I bought my convertible a few weeks ago, and since then the weather has apparently decided to declare war on me. Record-low temperatures, snow, and all-around miserable conditions showed up almost immediately. My friends are convinced this is entirely my fault and firmly believe that buying a convertible somehow triggered a seasonal catastrophe. According to them, the moment I signed the paperwork, winter took it personally.


Since I am a professional photographer with excellent Photoshop skills, I created this photo to reflect my current mindset and my plan while I wait for spring to finally show up.
I'm 66 and waited 54 years for this car....

Not too good with punctuation either, huh?

Congrats on the beautiful new car!

I’m 65 and can remember them coming out. A life wish has come true for both of us.

If I can own a 4 wheel drive F250 in Southern CA then you should be able to own a convertible in Maine : )

@Sig Oris .......molten magenta metallic tri-coat you say? I traded our 2024 Premium GT convertible in vapor blue metallic for a 2026 Premium GT in molten magenta metallic tri-coat. The difference was the 2026 will have 20" rims and the big one for me active valve exhaust. It is scheduled for build on February 23rd but as we all know those dates can get pushed around.

So YOU DID THIS !!! Welcome to meteorological infamy.

A point of grammar correction. Your admonishment should have begun with "You're" [not too good...]


Also, close enough to Canada that you could sub in "eh" for "huh"
