They were offered in different configurations. Convertible, coupe, hardtop, fourdoor and wagon in the Lemans level. Four door and wagon were not offered in the GTO line.

I see. So there's No shame in having a coupe then. I see em without a post want mine like that.
Oh ok thats cool. Does price matter on coupe or hardtop? Meaning if I would sell it what's worth more coupe or hardtop.. |

I personally like the hardtop (no post) over the coupe. Others may like the post better. Post is probably more rare. Parts availabilty for the post parts are limited and not generally reproduced like the hardtop parts.

Believe me you have no idea how hard it was getting my hands on that door. No company makes it and no one had it. But thank God I found someone who did. Well at least its like you said more rare of a car if it matters at all

This topic has been debated at length in other posts. Many people prefer the hardtop for it's cleaner looks especially when all the windows are down. Obviously when buyers were voting with their checkbooks, the vast majority bought a hardtop instead of the coupe. From the other viewpoint, the coupe is lighter & structurally stronger. It is also rarer. I have one of each & I prefer the coupe, but that's just me. Everyone seems to have an opinion about this but there is no disgrace in having a coupe & some people actually like them better. Jerry.
