Go open your trunk. See what happens to the leading edge lip.

So... who all is in for a petition to make a targa?! I own a Miata. I love it for what it is. Convertible or not. I had a hard top. Traded it for a motor dont care. Bought it because its fun to drive, RWD and has a LSD. Did I mention it weighs 2400lbs? And with the 01 motor untuned literally rigged is almost as fast as my fr-s... from a roll. Will I probably stiffen it up? Yeah I will. Does it make it a bad car? No. That's my rant for miata haters... that being said... if there was a true fastback style coupe of the Miata, I'd buy it. So I'm not so sure about this...

Not new news, but worth a conversation nonetheless. I've never been a fan of convertibles, but I must say the Toyobaru works nicely topless. As far as I know, however, Subaru has said they have no plans on releasing a convertible version of the BRZ. Hypothetically speaking, how many of you would be interested in a drop top Zed?

I'd be interested in a Targa top BRZ. Maybe even T's, but I'd pass on the cabriolet.

Interesting, never really thought of a targa variant of the BRZ. Wonder if there's any Photoshopped examples floating around?
