Vinyl is easier to maintain
OEM is vinyl.

Canvas looks better. Thats the only pro for canvas. Canvas doesnt last as long. Canvas is MUCH easier to tear, and canvas is harder to maintain.

Both tops are warrantied for five years and yes, the canvas looks better. The canvas is a deeper black color and is noticeable against the factory S2000 tops.

I believe that he was referring to the cash that would be saved by purchasing the vinyl top.
