convertible 4gen concept?

Seeing as it's 12:21 on a Saturday night and i'm sitting at home, I was thinking about my car and wondered, what would a convertible 95-99 max look like? Could someone with photoshopping skills come up with a decent looking one?

when i found the thread, the pics were all red x's now. someone has them on their site, i forget who, maybe theblue? there was also a photochopped 5th gen that looked ok, better than the 4th.


i saw a convertible older crown vic that someone just simply cut the roof off...i was like, that car has 4 doors and is a covertible...hmmm. it was very strange.


i also remember someone photochopped a 2 door max, that didn't look too bad.

Quick 5min photochop so you guys catch my drift....the wheel base would obviously be longer since I just cut out a door and moved it up slopply.... i wouldn't mind driving it


what do you guys think? I bet it would help out a lot at the track....I wonder how much faster a 2dr max would be?

Interesting concepts, lol. That 2 door wagon looks alot like a Pulsar, lol.

I think you'll find the Cefiro/Maxima wagon is only available in RHD. I've seen them around on the road, even saw one that had Maxima tags on it instead of the normal Cefiro ones. They don't have the same engine as Maxima's though, only a 2500cc or maybe even a 2000cc. I'm not sure if that front lip is stock or not, I don't remember seeing it on the ones I saw on the road.

Bah. This concept gets rehashed at least once a year. Stupid. The link to the 4th gen that was on ebay is now dead, and I doubt anyone saved the pictures. Numerous people have reported sightings of convertable 4th gens around the country. I think the one that was on Ebay was actually owned by an Org member from Arizona. Can't remember who tho.

Here's a 5th gen soft top: http://www.beaterz.com/reviews/1199/p29.htm

Here's a 2nd gen chop top: http://www-new.nissanx.com/old/htdocs/motm3.html

as for 4 door convertible conversions...
IT is possible.
I've seen acura legen, gs400, and infiniti( i forget which model)

I have an old issue of Dupont Registry auto magazine and i have a 1997 issue (forget which month).

There was a company that made your car into a convertible.

They had the E class convertible, acura nsx convertible, acura legen, gs400, infiniti( i forget which model), and other cars...

me and my friends were thinking about what a 2 door would like and then we decided it would look like crap on a stick. So im guessing a convertable would look like a terribly made 80s car
