I've posted this several times as this has come up. The company in Europe called Stuttgart makes a top that is the same as the Zeintop but allows you to keep the factory trunk lid on at ALL TIMES and does not require you to remove it when you want to put your top down, it works just like the Porsche factory hard-top. Here is a picture of the 2 hardtops next to each other. You can see how one is more elongated than the other.


This top IS the best solution for keeping your trunk and having the look of the Zientop. I think they may have ripped them off on the desing. Either that, or they are owned by the same company. Here is a side view of the Stuttgart Top.

That would look great with the Z-Art body kit....but it would probably cost 70% of the vehicle.
