I guess my point is a hard top Miata with 4 seats wouldn't be significantly lighter than the twins.
of course its heavier if you design a roadster and then make it a convertible but if you made the frs a convertible it would gain even more weight. i just dont really understand the point outside of a very narrow cherry picked situation to make the frs look good.
