    I have also never heard about this:confused:
    Maybe he is wondering if there is something around like the: Miami Vice Testarossa Convertible....which I have never loved!

    Anders,

    In my opinion, it would be a bad idea - just doesn't look good.

    Gentlemen, -Why I ask....

    I used to have a (sorry for saying this) Nissan 280 ZX with T-bar roof, and I just loved that car: it had almost the shape of the 550, it was open, but it also had lack of power, and it wasn´t a Ferrari....

    So, I was thinking about selling my 328 GTS and buy a 550 and maybe convert it. I mean, if people have had their Testarossas, 308/328 etc. converted into cabrios, targa etc. maybe someone had done something similar with a 550 ?
    The 550 has a great shape, but my personal oppinon is that most sports cars look even better open, and I enjoy the "open sky" driving.
    However, I don´t like the 550 Barcetta for a number of reasons (price too...), but a Targa / T-bar on a 550 would be exactly my thing.

    -Anyone out there, please ?!?

    Happy New Year to you all !
    Anders
