My Aveo Convertible Concept

[MetroAveo]

Nice! That looks alot cooler than the one I made! Though I'd like it better if it was a 2-door...

I wonder if it would be possible to pull off a conversion from a hatchback to a vert. It would involve chopping the top, adding structural support to the frame, finding a top frame that would fit, as well as weatherseals that wouldn't leak. Also the trunk would need to open differently. Probably too much to actually be worth it... but who knows, people have done amazing things with their Aveos so far, maybe this won't be far down the road.

I'm sure a Targa bar would have to be functional. IMO, what make this design work is the angle change of the windshield. It moves it away from the Metro look.

there is a company in california that was converting the new beetle, pt cruiser, and even the 300c. into 2 door convertibles before they were available factory.

I wonder if they take requests...?

I just heard that plans for the new Camaro and Challenger convertibles were scrapped because of the big three's money woes. Man, I was looking forward to seeing those.

Here's my photoshop rendition of how an Aveo might look as a convertible:

Is it just me or does it look like a GEO Metro Convertable?

Have you read this whole thread? We've had multiple people make that observation...

not that there's anything wrong with that...

I'd say that with the targa bar on top, it looks more like a VW Cabriolet.

The pic look a little better. Maybe you should try making a pic from the Aveo sedan body. I think that would look more like a convertible.
