did you get a cover when you got your car? if not theres a 3 piece cover thats supposed to come with it, you can either buy one (heard they were pretty expensive from the dealer) or go back to who/where you bought the car and complain and tell them to get you one because it should have come with the car...but it does make the car look a million times better when its on

ebay is your friend.... I actually don't want one, just another thing to have to take off and put away when you put the top up and while it doesn't take ALOT of room, it still takes room I can use in my trunk.

I don't have one either..I was thinking of buying one, but I'm pretty sure I would only use it to take pictures of the car. I like being able to put the top up while still going down the road, even though I have to slow way down, I'd much rather that than get out and take five minutes and all my trunk space to put it on when it looks fine without it.
