The convertible doesn’t have the eSLD so no performance traction management (PTM) modes. Not a huge deal since you stated you weren’t going to track the car.
You lose a large portion of the trunk when the top is down. The canvas top requires extra maintenance.
Many after-market parts don’t fit the convertible. Especially third-party exhausts because of the extra bracing on the convertible.
Having a top gives the ZL1 a much stiffer ride
Now I say all this as someone who loves top-down driving so I fully understand why someone would want the convertible. I just wanted to point out that there are some significant caveats to the convertible over the coupe.
