As sick as your car is, when the top is up it just kills the car.

I have never seen a ZR with the top up and thought anything but, wow that is pretty ugly.

Not many cars look worse with the top up and not many cars look better with the top down. I think the designers were bi-polar.

When it's too cold or the weather isn't cooperating, I just drive one of my other cars. Problem solved.

I think the S2k looks great with either the top up or down. Same with the Miata, E46 M3, and MR-S off the top of my head.

I guess I have to ask again, did anybody ever make a hardtop for the 350ZR? Interested it knowing this and if a company did I would like to see a pic!

It's all a matter of preference. I, personally, felt that the roadster looks better top up or down. Bought my '06 Touring 6MT Roadster and don't have a single regret. Like others have mentioned, the exhaust note with the top down is awesome!

Yea, I think top up kills the look of the 911 too, and it's especially bad looking if the ragtop isn't black. Red, blue, tan and white ragtops look horrible on pretty much anything imo.

Squalz, they do make aftermarket ones. I saw a Z on here that had it done (it's a red one, forget the user's name or the company that makes them) but if you search for "hard top" I think you will find his thread. I've heard that it costs about $5k to do, though, including painting and installation. That would be pretty sweet though!

Roadsters all look like trash to me. My personal opinion, so cry if you want, but I think your car is a hideous piece of **** if it's a roadster. It has got to be the ugliest convertible ever made. Seriously, who designed the top? Fire them.

Roadsters are for hairdressers and girls who dress head to toe in pink and have hair extensions, fake ****, chit for brains and spend all day in Spa's talking about how beautiful they look. Have you ever seen one of these bimbo's trying to park a roadster? Absolutely hilarious, it should be made into a sport.

Samsniss, I sense you’re holding back, there’s no need, why not tell us how you really feel.

Aw, somebody couldn't get mommy to pay extra for the roadster. Cry it out, bro. You'll feel better.

My personal opinion is to go for the convertible. There's nothing quite like a ride in a convertible to release tension. Love the wind in the face. I also think the convertible is better looking.

I have owned my Roadster for almost 5 years now and I still think the Coupe looks better. However, whenever anyone sees me drive up with the top down their first words are, "Man I wish I had a convertible." Now not many of these guys on THIS site like the 350ZR, but many of them are either jealous, trolls, or traditionalists. Either way I hardly ever have my top up because I think it hurts the look of the car. I have 1 shot that I like with the top up:



But it still looks better with the top down:

Clean no doubt, but still would look 10x better as a coupe.
