racers want them cause it is required. Not sure what your budget is but they usually sell for around $1k. Anyone asking for more then $1200 will be siting on it for a long time.

I always look for one just to have it and increase re-sale value but...unless you drive it in the winter it isn't very useful. Plus you have to store it when not installed, plus installing & removing, etc. Once you have done it once you will tell yourself you aren't going to put it back on. I have had the hard top on miata's and it's just as much of a pain.

I have 2 Jeep Wranglers (TJ & JK) and it's even more of a pain, especially to store them. Having a hard top dangling from the ceiling or on a cart just takes up room in a garage. Necessary on a Jeep cause it really does help with sound on those cars but on a 986 there isn't much difference and my Porsche never go out in the winter.
