For those of you who have purchased a Zeintop, how much did you pay? I emailed Zeintec directly to get a price quote as I was fed up with dealing with their US dealers that all have a different price.

Zeintec's response was that they had nixed all their US dealers due to price gouging and marking it up as much as 80% with a maaco type paint job. Out the door with primer, ready to be painted is $2200. That seems fair to me considering a Porsche hardtop is around $2000+. I just have to have it painted which I would've done anyway because, if you have someone paint it without ever looking at your car and going solely off a paint code....it won't match.

I'm going by my shop today to see what he would charge me to paint the hardtop.

I just might have a Zeintop after the first of the year.
