Default Softtop + Frame + Motors in the trunk ?

Hello guys, I'm about to buy a mint softtop + frame + motors.
And I wanted to know if it will fit the trunk of my S2000.

I don't want to do a road trip for nothing or I'll go back topdown with it...

I'm pretty sure I saw a picture on this website where there was one complete soft top in the trunk (no spare tire and plastics/carpet removed)

I doubt that soft top would still be in mint condition after you attempt to stuff it in the trunk.

Well, it doesn't fit for sure.
So I swapped it with the help of the owner. It tooks us 4.5 hours.

And I went back home with my old softtop + assembly into the car topdown (passenger seat already removed by precaution.)

With motors, frame, softtop, it weighs near 43kg (94.7lb).

That's the general consensus. Source: a plethora of old threads.

No freakin' way. Mine was around 60 lbs with glass and all the plastic trays and bolts.
