    No, none of the ones we had.

    I'm not a fan of the outside sliders -- headroom, yes, but terrible for aerodynamics! You'll pay for that beyond ~50 km/h.

    As are all convertibles. I guess you pay to play.

    I find I use my sunshade a LOT in the summer; the heat in the car without it can overwhelm the A/C.

    Huh. I always thought it was a wash one way or the other; I couldn't find any definitive sources that tested this theory.

    Try driving down the highway with the sunroof wide open and air conditioning going full blast!



    In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.
