Unless you sell to someone who doesn't notice that the soft top is missing....

speak english and stop typing in caps

To the OP, cant say for sure for the miata, but I know that the softtop with motor weighs more than the cwings hardtop I use to have. But the difference is negligible.

Sorry, but if I type properly and with correct capitalization, my sarcasm might be lost on everyone.. instead of just on you.

Apparently you save about 20lbs with OEM hardtop.

Just another example of why the CR sounds like a silly idea to me without a soft top...

Just remove the soft top motors if you want to save weight, removing the soft top kills resale if you ever plan on selling. The motors are the most weight and can be put back easily.

Thats not true. The motors are very small and do not weigh very much at all. Most of the weight is in the framing/canvas and window (if it has glass). You will notice a difference without it on the car (feels like driving with a 1/4 tank of gas as opposed to a full tank
