Nope, SC986 mentioned it in his post above.

That looks pretty sweet.

Actually that image I posted is NOT the Zeintop. Although Zeintop was the original creator of this hardtop, it looks as though another manufacture has copied their idea and shortened the rear a little and made it a true removeable hard top. The Zeintop has a fixed hatch-back trunk that opens. The other company has no trunk lid that opens. It's only the top with an extension that stops before the stock trunk lid. Here is a picture of the 2 sided by side. Zeintop(Red Car), Stuttgart Connection (Silver Car)You can see the difference. The Zeintop is a little more for the person who wants it to be perminate, because you have to remove the stock trunk lid. These tops are availible for both the 986 & 987. I want the Stuttgart one for my box.

You got 986! The Zeintec is also pricy at $5k. They have been way behind on getting production started. I'm not sure but I think I read the Zeintec was fiberglass? That could be a concern. I forgot to ask Stugart what their top was made from when I contacted them.
