Hence the Z4 is no longer an option for me, it looks just too odd with the roof up, sorry Chris
It's all the reason I have a MX5 and will get a TT.

Again the MX5 looks great with the roof up too, unfortunately I'm not so keen on the roadster MX5. However clever and neat the roof it just doesn't look balanced when up, sorry Hat

The TTR IMHO looks better then the coupe even when the roof is up. The lines are better, sorry Aiden

But all that said I would prefer a hard top for MY car. However as we have a hardtop MINI, it's MY car that needs to be a drop top unitl we swap the MINI

MINI, RX8 and MX5 - Done those............. It's now TTime
