Cool site!! Makes me wonder if a retractable hardtop could be made for the S2000.

Peugeot 206CC, the best selling convertible in Hong Kong, also the cheapest car with retractable hardtop.

it is like a cheaper SC430, very good car, Peugeot also has a reputation of good handling FF cars like Honda.

wow, that Honda is so cool!!, never see that before. I like it, it is at least as cool as the S2000

WOW, looks like the S2000's older brother. I can see a slight resemblance between the two. Very cool!

I dont think that Honda Roadster's retractable top is like the one in SLK, SL, and SC430.

I think the rear half of the top with the rear window are restractable, the front part should be a targe style top that take off and put it back by human hand. TVR had the same design.
dont know am I right or wrong, but that is a very cool car!!

is that car (a concept right?)came from a American company or design by American.
I believe I saw that in some magazine before, but dont remeber.

I like it, it has the retro style of classic America convertible, so long and hugo, and gets alot attention .

I wish I have a Luxary cruiser like that.
