Default Hardtops?

What year and model of Trans Am could you get a hardtop? Or could you get a hardtop? I think I saw one a while ago but I can't remember what model it was. I just think the hardtops look much better IMO. Kinda like the C5 Z06.

As best as I can recall, 1997 was the last year a Trans Am could be had without t-tops.

That would have been a nice option on the final year run.
