    I have a BMW convertible at the moment, but due to a bad back I find the stiff suspension too much for my back, so I tend not to drive it much. This is a complete waste of a lovely car. I am thinking of trading it in for a saab 93 convertible, however there are very little examples around where I live. I was hoping someone might be able to let me know what they think of the ride quality of the Saab 93 convertible (04 to 06).

    before I bought my BMW convertible I was trying out Saab 93 and Volvo C70. Didn't like driving Saab at all. Seats weren't really confortable at all and can not be adjusted as great as you can in BMW. Front windscreen could be larger. Manual gearbox + clutch on saabs feels terrible. If the hood is up the rear window is very small to compare with BMW. Volvo was way better than saab but BMW I liked the most so I bought it. Happy so far.

    Edit: sorry, did a bit of comparison between cars and noticed after that you are only interested into ride quality. Saab 90 was't soft at all, it was quite stiff and had a lot of squeaky noises from dasboard and other parts of interior. Volvo C70 was nice and soft to drive. My BMW came on 18 alloys and was quite stiff but then I replaced those alloys with 15 inch and have tyres of 70 now and ride is good. But then again, I don't have any back pain yet.
