seating capacity for some obvious reasons. A vert would also be a cool toy to own though. Since you appear to be quite a-ways away from my needs for a 2+2, I'm tempted to point you towards a vert. But living in the New England area, gives you less time to really enjoy top down motoring, so now you're driving your vert with the roof up. The 2+2 does have the T-Tops so you do get open-air motoring with that option, plus the utility provided by the extra interior room.
