What is the most reliable convertible?

Topic starter

With summer coming around, I was looking to buy a convertible or coupe of some sort. I was looking at the Toyota Solara, but I see they have a oil burning problem. I also thought of the Volvo c70 but I don't know how reliable it is. Any suggestions on coupes and convertibles to buy?


Budget is around 3-8k

Get a V6 Solara. They don't have the oil burning issue. 


Any other convertibles I should consider?

Mazda Miata with manual transmission if 2 seats are sufficient.

V6 mustangs can be a decently reliable one, assuming it wasn't abused by the previous owner. But usually those that abuse them want the V8. If you can find a V6 one from an older person, it's not bad.

My 63 Corvair. Or if you want real class, a 1975 Cadillac Eldorado. 500 cu. in. V8


I am looking for more of a daily driver.

1966 Mustang convertible with the 289 V8.


And collectible as well.


My 1967 Rambler convertible with 343 V8 has been quite reliable but I have a feeling the OP isn't looking for anything quite that old. 😆



Too bad. The old ones were simple and very reliable, IMO.  They were engineered and built before the term "Planned Obsolescence" was invented.
