I sure as hell wouldn't want a convertible, but if they actually released one, they'd get a few more sales. Not that they would necessarily get a return on their investment, but there would be a handful more 86's on the road, which means even more motivation for the aftermarket, which is good for all of us.

But yeah, as far as I know, in almost every car that has a convertible/roadster version as well as a standard fixed roof version, the convertible is always less stiff. Unacceptable.

A roof is actually a performance part, as weird as that is to think about.
