So you're concerned with the extra road noise from the cabrio top, and your solution is to buy a coupe and add a catback exhaust and air filter, which likely will make it noiser inside than a cabrio? Ok, I see.

cabrio is not noisy even at 90mph.....
Cabrio is more versitile and will always have a higher resale value than just a hard top!!!!!!!!!

CAbrio... I am taking the plunge. i have been swaying back and forth for a while now. I live in galveston which has pretty mild winters so i will probably leave the top down 24-7:P i just worry about longevity of the top in winds and such, for i do have a 4 hr trip at least once every 1-3 months, plus its windy on the "barrier island", but anyways, i feel it is worth it. i love the open air feel on my bike, and i need a way to carry my surfboard if your dad says do it then i think you should ;)
