I wonder what the final weight of the car would be. Adding even 100lbs to a car this light would have a dramatic impact on performance. Not to mention the loss in chassis rigidity. I've owned two convertibles, one e46 BMW and one 1996 Camaro SS and I will never own another one unless the car was originally designed to be a convertible from conception.

I can't think of a faster way to ruin the balance of a car than by cutting its top off.

That said... it really is pretty.
