If in doubt, get one of each. Coupe for Saturdays, convertible for Sundays. Problem solved. 
Are convertible Termis bad?

What's important to look at with regards to 60s/70s pricing is.....where was that pricing 17 years out. Say late 80s. Were verts bringing more than coupes? Just like the classic muscle car.....when new, verts stickered for more money msrp. Same with the terminator.
What's odd is the fact terminator coupes have not only made up that original msrp difference from a vert.....but have surpassed it in value 17 years down the road. Did the 60s/70s muscle car demonstrate that same pricing trend late 80s? Is the terminator somehow unique in how the pricing is reflected today? The terminator coupe could just break the mold.

Thank you sir! It has changed quite a bit since I did my signature picture. I’ve added a couple of lifts and more cars. My Terminator vert has been on the lift for over a year... time to get it down and fire it up. With 502 miles, it’s not a driver.
Maybe a good benchmark would be a modern classic like the Fox body. Im curious how coupes fair vs verts? Don’t coupes command more money?
After reading through the responses there is a lot of good comments, goose nailed it on everything he says. There are pros and cons to a convertible,1, they leak. 2, heavier by 300ish lbs I think. 3, louder. 4 the wet noodle comment best describes a stock vert. On the positive side they are FUN!

Oh my God.............
I believe that is the case iirc....but I have a lot more time watching the terminator prices, not near as much the fox bodies
I agree with this but only in the context of actual collectors, people who would like to have a factory original type car. You'll undoubtedly find more verts without mods than coupes, relatively speaking.
Good lord goose that's a beautiful collection! How the heck did you score all that memorabilia as well?
Thank you sir! There is a lot of memorabilia not shown in the picture... got a bit of a problem.
I am an eBay junkie and I have some collectors/sellers that send me pics since they know I’m an easy target.

That's great. Something that takes a lifetime to accumulate. I am a huge sign collector and with me just getting my first cobra I am excited to start my collection. Sorry to derail the thread. I like the look of coupes but there is nothing like dropping the top and hearing that exhaust.
My Terminator vert is bad. I'm OK with that.
Its a guarantee that panties wont drop when using the word “termi” unless its your boyfriend who’s wearing them panties. That’s a whole different story we rather you keep to yourself though.
