Frontal Area of Geo Convertible and Sedan?
 
I need help from a Geo expert. I've been studying profile pictures of the convertible and equivalent year sedan to try to figure out whether the convertible enjoys a lower frontal area. I remember sitting in a friends convertible and thinking that it felt much lower. Obviously the side window is different, but can't detect whether it is "shorter."

Is the top of the convertible 1 or 2 inches (48-92 sq. in. lower A) than the sedan???

You didn't say what year.

Researching at cars.com, 1992 seems to be the most recent year Geo Metro with both a sedan and convertible.

Even if 1992 happens to be the year in question, you'll want to research for your self. Eg. I never checked to see if they came equipped with the same tires and wheels.
