They need to blend those body add on a little better. Make more like the RX7 and its a good looking coupe.

Nice idea. Honda should be watching (if they don't already have one in the makings).

I like it --- but it reminds me just a little of a mini-Monte Carlo.

As long as there is room for a helmet and rollcage I'm all for it.

That's pretty cool! Much nicer, IMO, than the convertible itself. Looks great.

I feel sorry for the rear passengers, I don't see how you could see anything from the backseat since it must be very uncomfortable and tiny!


I think it looks cool though. I do see a little mini Monte Carlo in it though. Especially with the white checkered flags going down the side...

But one thing that I don't understand is why people buy convertibles and put hard tops on them or wish it was a coupe. Part of what makes the Miata so special is the fact it's a crisp droptop. To each his own, however, looks good - if you want to put a top on a convertible.
