If it's so warm out that the black is really going to attract heat, it's warm enough take the top off.

color matching rio, gives your car a differant look from the softtop.

Only do color matched, Berlina or Carbon. I would laugh out loud if I saw a Rio S2k with a white, blue, silver, red, or otherwise non matching top. And yes, such a transgression would not simply be covered by LOL, it would merit a full laugh out loud.

sadly....yes.

But just think of mod possibilites I could do with the 3K
I might use for a hardtop....coilovers installed and OZ 17" wheels
and new Durezzas and K+N drop in filter and those fancy spark
plugs and then I would be more than happy!

Can't imagine adding boost to this engine...if you can learn
how to truly drive this car(correct rev range/max use of power
band) this car is wayyy more fast than you would ever need
unless you race your S!


ps...I think it's clear...the best top would be "rio-yellow" in color.
The "berlina" would look quite trick...but would be very hot as well!

I am curious, why is it that you must buy a hardtop?

And definately color match first, then black if you want to save money.
