Why…

….so little usage?

Pain in the butt? Like top down driving too much?

I’ve been searching for a Carrera GT Silver one like our cars.

Not that hard to take on or off, but two people required to do it safely IMHO, I just never use it because I always have the top down, usually with the spyder humps on. I never came across one in GT Silver Metallic, always planned to paint it. Glad I didn’t because the Arctic Silver (if that is what it is) is much more common on a 986.

Copy that.

Every time I think about buying a hard top, I remember that I had one for my old NA Miata, and I never used it.
