I imagine a company that thinks a cupholder and stereo are useless probably don't see the need to engineer a retractable hardtop. Too much weight.

BTW...
Here's the original hardtop convertible. Quite the marvel in its day.

My dad's 1957 Ford Skyliner

For those of you too young, this is how it worked (along with some crossed fingers).
