    DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THERE IS A SUPPLIER THAT MAKES A CONVERTIBLE HARD TOP FOR A BARCHETTA. I REALLY LIKE THE CAR AND WOULD LIKE TO KEEP IT, BUT IT IS NOT PRACTICAL FOR ME WITHOUT A SECURE GOOD LOOKING HARDTOP. I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE TO NO AVAIL. HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME.

    I agree the Barchetta is not practical without a usable top, But I must ask,...

    Would you give a topless Heidi Klum a top?

    I haven't seen any attractive hard top options for the Barchetta, but I am certain that a good shop that lays up fiberglass and/or carbon fibre could create a mold and custom make one for you... at a high cost I am sure, but for an awesome car like yours, I think it would be well worth it ;)

    Try to contact this company and see if they could make one for you with a more simple design - just an idea, because they must have the right measurements already.

    Best of luck.

    I saw a nicer top on a Barchetta at Laguna Seca this year, being driven in Carmel as well. It looked similar to Peter Kalikows top on his navy car with a smooth top to the top of the roof not the waves and it did not look bad . I did not get a photo of it but possibly someone did. The car was Red/tan.

    LOL!

    A topless Heidi Klum as your date at a family diner party is also not very practical is it? :p
