[QUOTE=VTEC_Junkie,May 2 2005, 10:47 PM]i know there are exceptions, and that there are individuals like yourself who would not mind having to get in and out of his/her car to remove/reattach the top, but i'm just saying in general, people find it a hassle and an inconvience.

But I guess the fundamental problem is whatever one person likes, another person doesnt. We'll never know popular opinion! Cant make everyone happy!

true, but i'm sure multibillion dollar car companies do some sort of market research before they make their decisions.

yup, who knows what they found out?
Maybe they need bigger sample sizes.

T-tops and targas offer much better security than ragtops. They are also quieter, cheaper, and (presumeably) stiffer than a softtop. If they weren't extinct right now in the ~$30k Japanese sports car price class, I would have bought one instead of a full-on convertible. Getting out and removing the roof sections is not an issue for me.
