I think he's saying that it isn't flaked off yet.

I also read the white tops are vinyl. Makes perfect sense. A white canvas top would look like a dirty diaper after about 2 weeks.

I meant "not mine" as in not my car. I saw it at a show and I don't know what kind of top it was.

That is ******* hot!!!

I love white cars with red leather, especially convertibles. Its sort of a Cadillac thing, many of the older Caddys had white paint, white vinyl top, bright red leather. Some had a more burgandy/darker red leather too.

Aron is right. That is hot.

I have a 96 vert that is red with the red leather. I have to get a paint job and I want badly to paint it either white or silver. The red interior doesn't stand out as much with the red exterior all around it. White or silver makes the red leather really pop. Only problem is, a color change paint job is a lot more expensive than a respray.

Nice stance, what lowering spring did you purchase?

I have a 96 TA Red w/white top.. thinking of changing to Tan top though the white is a pain to keep clean.

What do you guys use to clean your white top??

Eibach SPORTLINE KIT

i just used a soft bristle brush and wash mitt with zipwax carwash
and twice during the 7yrs i owned it soaked it with simple green instead of
the zipwax and always followed up with a vinyl conditioner.

looked great

My 95 Formula is supposed to have a white top (white paint, lt. grey interior), but a previous owner replaced it with a grey one.

Looks good, have you thought about adding the white inserts on the doors?
on the TA's the inserts are white or red when the seats are.
just a little more accent but not over the top with the complete interior

I have a 99 SS with white with white top and the grey interior y'all are making me what to switch it to the white leather. I always thought about doing a white convertible with the orange stripes and orange houndstooth seats kinda a throw back to the 69 pace car would be bad ***.

Stunning car. I remember seeing a brand new corvette in teal with white interior and really wanting it. Probably not appropriate for this thread but I would love to see and read more details about it.

Forgot about this thread. My car originally had a black top and black leather seats. I've replaced both. As a previous poster stated my intent was an homage to the 69 Indy 500 Pace Car.

I have a white top on white car and I think a black would look much better. I'm not sure if mine has been replaced before but it just doesn't match well. The top is more off white than the paint.
