What's the real deal with t top cars?
I heat T top cars are unsafe because in a roll over you increase your chances of getting injured/killed....possibly decapitated...

The roof structures on the fourth-gen cars are identical between the fixed roof and t-top cars. The only difference is the fixed roof cars have additional metal along the edges of the roofline.

Well in GOVT crash tests they must have done OK to be able to be sold, but as far as I'm concerned govt crash tests prove almost nothing as all the tests they do are under fixed conditions... no crash in the real world is under fixed conditions.

Man the chances of you flipping are rare. You are more likely to hit something, and bounce out of the car through the front window. Now that can happen in any type of car. Just go and buy a T-top and enjoy it everytime you go to the beach.
