Cheapest japanese convertibles . . . . - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

Had a chance to day to drive a car that is probably more rare to find and see then a Ferrari Enzo

. . . yep a Toyota Cynos Convertible . . . the car is also very well known amongst the Chav community in europe and the US under name Toyota Paseo. When you can't afford a Saxo, you buy a Paseo. The car looks really cool at first sight and tuned once can rival many cars on the looks. Bad point is the quality thought, Toyota Starlet looks like a Lexus against this one. But well it was never ment to be something else then a budget coupe that actually handles very great for the money.

I drove a convertible today and I thought fcuk! . . for this little money you get a Toyota reliable car from 1997, it's fun to drive with a lowered suspension and you can enjoy the fresh air. It even looks 10 times more sportier then it actually is .

So here is my recomandation for your 4th or 5th car, which obviously will be a budget car., but on the same time doesn't need to be a crap Seat Ibiza Diesel from 1985.

If you know more cars like this, post them . .

These are rare? I know two people that have them here in NZ (both girls i might add

) and i've seen them around quite a bit.

They also look really really homosexual in yellow with chromes.......

Mate, that's a hairdresser car

Don't know why but reminds me of the MG

good lord, the Paseo has to have been one of the most hideously styled cars ever, with some kind of bulbous and amorphous rear end similar to what you'd see on girls you'd rather not shag, let alone look at. But chop the top and the rear, and is it just me or does the front evoke a Lexus SC400/Celica feel?

For sub 1000Euros get a cabriolet , realiable, not too old and chav friendly.
