I could see Nimesh in that for sure.

Mind you he's very sensitive to sunroofs

My question would be, why?

Unless you are a serious tracker, or hate convertibles, or really hate the 911.

interesting to what market they are targeting.

I'd rather get a boxster S, a 911 coupe, or a 911 cab.

Looks like an awesome car.

A clubsport version that is street legal would be awesome.

I hate that marketing has taken over. Clearly this car is cheaper to make than a boxster, but no, lets bring it out AFTER and say because its higher performance (lighter) that its worth more.

Now is the chance for Honda to bring out a $100k S2000. Make it a coupe.

Then WTF were you talking about an M3 last week?
You would get an M3 in a drop top?

M3 would replace the 740.

it's not lighter, it's about the same. it's just faster because of the increased engine displacement and a few other things that make it more powerful.
