Mine didn't come with one, but I have a feeling I'm not missing anything

Honda went through the trouble and expense to provide it because in addition to the aesthetics, it does reduce drag.

If you're top down a lot, shaving your head helps too.

It was good to meet you RSXFlyBy, hope to see you again at the weekly meets!

I tried using the tonneau cover a couple of times. It just seemed like an unnecessary risk of scarring your trim and paint- a true PITA to use.

That's why I'm developing one, an early prototype:

I use mine but I like to leave the top down all the time even in the garage.

I don't use it often (and I have two of them! - the one that came with my car and the one Honda put in there when I took it in for warranty work - they checked my trunk and found it wasn't in there and gave me another one). I try to leave the top up when not in the car unless its only for a few minutes. Mostly its the drive to work in the morning and the drive home in the evenings, weather permitting, that the top comes down.
