Post Targa top!!

Hopefully Toyota sees this.. I was looking through the photochop thread and there was a photochop of the ft-86 with a targa top. It looked great! I understand people think it might add weight, but it would be a great option for people who aren't gonna care about a couple extra pounds. I personally love the way the supra and 300zx look with a targa top and the ft-86 would look great too!

Do you want a targa top, or the option for one on your FT-86??

nope, Ill be satisfied with the just the coupe. I think that kind of R&D would drive up the prices on line up overall too.

I'd be fine with a coupe, but I really wouldn't mind a targa.
It's the only kind of convertible I'd accept.

Yeah, but we're not talking about if they screw it up. We're all hoping they won't and talking about what would be nice in an ideal world.

MR2's didn't have Targa's, they had T-tops. Completely different.

And no, Supra Targa's were just plain awesome.

I voted yes. Its doubtable that this car won't get some type of "top" design trim to make those types of people happy. Why not Targa? It sort of says "here's your non-hardtop sports car....but we won't do ragtops, because those are for grocery getters." (inb4 S2k)

T-tops are similar, but I'm not fond of their styling.

Targa is the only acceptable open top for me too but if it raises the weight I will prefer the coupe version.
