If I wanted an S with a fixed roof, I would have bought an RX-8 instead. I'd get the wheels and enjoy the S as a convertible.

I did my HT first as I like my AP2 V2's, coilovers next and maybe some spacers, new wheels maybe later on when I need new tyres.

They're almost, if not, as fast as S's....

The point he's making is..... It's a convertible, enjoy the luxury you have.

I'd get a hardtop first. Don't strip out your softop though. Enjoy both worlds IMO

I went with the wheels. However i live in the burbs, have a garage spot and rarely head downtown, therefore i have less chance for top cut and theft.

Hardtop > rims
cuz with wheels you need a drop so you'd have to spend more on suspension
