Come on hardtop guys, you know you would rather have T-TOPs!!!

They really are the best of both worlds. Plus you can see through the top - how luxurious

Verts are for girls!! :suergay: even vette drops are for WOMEN!

As if anyone would have decided on such the little performance difference, if any, between a hardtop and t-top fbodys. Please

this has been argued so many times....t-tops bodies are not as stiff as hard top. At least the vert comes with extra frame structure to support no roof. T-tops are similar to a vert, but quite different. I can jump in the car and drive, and raise or lower the top as I drive slowly. As opposed to realistically to remove or replace t-tops takes at least 5 minutes by the time you run around the car, fit them in etc...no blind spots open vert. A vert is much more open then T's. I'm not busting on T-top cars, just busting your bubble on some of your comments, just aren't quite right.

I have t-tops, they're awsome to have in the summer and never a problem in the winter.
