"Don't buy a convertible or coupe to express individuality. Buy an off-road ready CUV!" (that most people will never take off pavement)
Throw in higher insurance rates and heavier cars thanks to regulations (a lot harder to differential the driving feel between a 3500 lb coupe and 4000 lb CUV, than if the coupe in question was 2500-3000 lb).
