Default Hardtops Discontinued!

Aparently Honda has decided to discontinue the manufacturing of Hardtops and the instalation kits for it. From what my sources say, anyone else hear the same?

i just hope that the new S comes with a retractible hardtop, that would be awesome

SOURCES SAY THEY'RE DISCONTINUING HARDTOPS SO THAT MORE SEATS CAN GET STOLEN SO THAT THEY CAN MAKE $8K FOR EACH PAIR OF SEATS THAT HAVE TO BE REPLACED.

$3000 for a Miata-looking hardtop, when you can go get a Mugen FBP for about the same price

FRp not FBP

fiberglass reinforced Plastic

btw the wait on the Mugen is several weeks and required paint..

so oem is still cheaper. ;-)
