Hmm, not sure what I think about it.

I wouldn't care for a hardtop if I wanted a ZR anyway... because I would expect to drive it most of the time with the top down.

If i did create one, would anybody be interested in purchasing one?

I would definitly bre interested in buying one. Kentassin@***.net

I wouldn't be surprised if the new Z34 comes out with the hardtop version. There still is a lot of issues with the roadster tops!!!! The roadster might be history!

If you buy a hard top then you cannot have the occasional convertible

I will post pics of the car sometime this week.

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Have an ETA... when

I have been waiting for 3 years, guess I shouldn't hold my breath.

There has to be a vendor that can produce one. Most owners already replaced the soft top by now anyway and dropped 1,000-1,500$. I have seen s2000's hard tops for as low as 800$ shipped and they have about 7 vendors currently making them.

Maybe not...

But If we give it enough bumps to the top maybe someone will take notice?

^^^ HAHAHA!!! +1 for someone taking notice. If a hardtop came out for the Zr I would drop everything and buy it. I don't understand the people who say if you wanted a hardtop why wouldn't you buy the coupe. It's not that I want a hardtop year around I just want the best of both worlds. Is that to much to ask?
