Girls around here prefer the good old black convertible, atleast I've had plenty of luck with it, but it can't sit 3girls. I'm not saying a beat ass FC either, mines in tip top condition (besides the top) and I wouldn't trade it for the bubbly looks of an FE except of course if I could sell it
The main point is they are a very very nice autox, DD, they just lack in the acceleration part ( of course this is all my opinion so noone need take offense). But on the last part you are wrong, there are still parts everywhere for FCs, atleast the good series (zenki s4) and there will continue to be parts made, and new parts invented because the FC isn't going anywhere anytime soon atleast.
