If and when the new Z-top becomes available, if anyone is interested in an Australian buy to combine shipping, please let me know as I'll be buying one.

Is there insulation in the roof?
What's it sound like going down the road?

A fiberglass can.. Curious

If installed right its quieter than a softop but def. louder than the inside of a sedan or cayman

Not my cup of tea, can't see making my Boxster a Cayman.

I like the sunshine and the top down, but if I lived in the mid-west or east would be great for winter months. But then again a hardtop would do the job easier.

I guess you can go back and read the early posts. I advised everyone (those few who didn't already know) that these tops are not made and haven't been for about 3 years. Regardless of what the claimed maker of these says, he (if he is in fact the maker) doesn't make them and only wanted the advance money for money's sake. This thread (as any involving Zeintop questions other than buying an old used one) should be stopped because new folk read these and think they're still around.
