I don't write too much here, but today I have to say that this is a disgusting piece of news.

I don't like convertibles (I don't think they're retarded, tough), but this is not what upsets me.

What makes me feel sad is that, as far as I know, a car conceived to be a convertible, has some structural parts that aren't needed in a closed car. It means that it has unnecessary weight and that the design has been compromised in some aspects to favor the transformation.

Perhaps they have talked about the roadster before. If so, I haven't noticed, but I remember Tada San or one of the bosses, telling that this car wasn't prepared to become a cabrio.

They could have made it lighter. Don't know how much more lighter, but lighter after all.

I feel extremely betrayed. Unless somebody proves me wrong about everything.
