It looks good, but. Happy they did the hard top first. I don't see myself owning another convertible and I'm glad we have an FRS in the garage!

Convertible FR-S sounds like a chick car if engine output remains the same. As in, I expect to see many women driving them.

I am glad I have the Hard top
By the way that Toyota are speaking with keeping weight down will most likely be a rag top convertible and that would look like crap IMO And how much body flex would they get even with the extra weight for soft top. |
