would probably make it a little closer to its inspiration, but no thanks.

porsche included the glass top in the 03 model. look for the "ribs" in the top. if there are 3, then it's an aftermarket top. if there are 4, it's the newer top, which allows the window to folder up a little better than the GAHH / aftermarket tops.

i can't say for sure since i have never had the non-acoustic top installed. from what i understand the material is a little thicker and maybe a tighter weave to provide more sound dampening. if you don't have a headliner you'll want to get one since that should help with the sound as well. of course if a little road noise doesn't bother you... i have a black car so i only wanted a black top. take a look online for some grey / black boxsters and see what you think. i also have no idea about autotopsdirect. from what i hear they're pretty much the same as a GAHH... just preference i guess.
