I have had both coupe and convertible X100sand while the convertible was the quietist convertible I have ever have driven with the top down the coupe was a nicer all around car. That said the convertible was a 98 XK* and the coupe was a 2006 XKR victory. The couple was faster, more comfortable and much better handling. Possibly not a apples to apples comparison but both fine rides. I can send you interior photos of the couple if you want to see the carbon fiber dash and functional GPS I installed to replace the obsolete one.

Best

l can see how that can be said, its not a looker in all colours. That ''champagne'' colour with a white roof and white cabin for example, that arguably way goes past 'chick' and heading fast toward 'Liberace'.
