I have never seen a rag top that I thought looked good. Hard tops verts just feel like the best of both worlds to me.

Agree wholeheartedly, that's the whole pt why they made hardtop verts. Rags are just an afterthought, like 'meh, we gotta make a cover for this car, so *poof*, have some fabric' lol.
That being said, ASAP makes some sense if it's true the wt penalty is 500lbs, that's just insane. Still, hardtop is better-looking, hard to see otherwise, metal vs a rag? Forget about it.
Anyway, I'm really a coupe guy, unless my next car has a carbon tub, then bring on the topless once more. |
It is true — the 4 series hard top adds 510 pounds between the roof itself and the extra bracing.
I agree though - it feels much more like 2 cars in one. A stock M4 vert, even without a little work can still get you from 0-speeding ticket in a couple of clicks...almost no one would take one to a track day. Good mix of versatility, speed (yes, even fat it can still run), luxury, and refinement in my book
