Wow! It was just a sugestion. I thought you were torn between the 2 and could not decide and I was only offering an alternative option that worked in both situations. It's only $5K plus shipping, not 8. Good luck on your decision. [/QUOTE]

porsche986spyder, sorry... that came out a too strong and I didn't mean to be abrasive. Sometimes I hate the way forum threads read when you can't see I'm smiling while I type enthusiastically.

I've often considered buying a hard top for my 986, but I really don't like the looks of the "inexpensive" one. The fastback one that makes the 986 look like a cayman is nice, but it's up there in the 5-6k price range too... I'd hate to spend this much on a car that's only worth 12k and sink more unrecoverable cash into it.

Hence, my current decision to just buy a "boxster coupe" next time around.
