The solid sail panel looks like it would create a blind spot. There are side mirrors but it also looks add on. Just my opinion. |

It looks like it was chopped off a trans am or the likes. I wonder why a standard hard top wouldn't do for them, a la Shelby Cobra style, M Roadster style, etc? |

Thanks, willi. I tend to agree. The zagato style bubble aspect is cool, the side view reminds me a little bit of the 64 gto, the front perspective looks absolutely weird, but hey, it might give the thing the panache of a viper(particularly if i opt for the racing stripe paint job on the top). Only real problem that i can see is that it does not appear to be stowable; hence the same need for teutonic dwarfs that one has in attaching the merc sl tops, plus can't take it with you, unless your man is trailing in a more commodious conveyance. I put an email into the guy anyway. |

Here it is http://www.ferrariownersclub.co.uk/happenings/2002/march/550.html Let me know what u think, I would like to see the rear sails go back further like on the 512TR but I guess u have a gas cap in the way |
