i LOVE MY T-TOPS... i think they look great when off... more privacy than vert too...

i dont know, i've never been a vert guy, infact, i never even liked T-Tops till I go mine...

but they add SOOOooo much weight to a GT... my GT weighs more than any other GT I've ever seen (foxbody)

T-Tops = Body flex. Not a good thing in a performance car.

I don't know about the fox bodies, but the II's with the T top option had extra bracing added to prevent that. Plus that's nothing a good set of subframes can't solve.

In the Camaro the T-top cars have the same flex as the coupes, THe hardtops have no extra support, just filler.


ALL Vette coupes have a Targa top and they do just fine. T-tops/Targa/sunroof would only be any option, if you don't like it you don't have to buy it, but those that do like them could.

I guess you think that ford shouldn't make a vert them.

I would like either Sunrof or T-Tops in that order. Convertables are cool but too impractical in the northeast especially if you don't have agarage for the winter.)

We'll see what the car gods think in January.

I have t-tops on my '85. I love them

I'd love for the new stangs to have t-tops...or at least a sunroof.

Just because they come with t-tops doesn't mean you all need to get them. You don't want them, get yours with a normal roof then.

The question though is. Is Ford going to put any money into developing t-tops. Although it might be a unique option. I don't think there is enough real world demand.

100% of Corvette coupes have a Targa top

in 2001 66% of Camaros coupes were bought with T-Tops
