Have you ever seen a Solstice/Sky top in person up close? From the factory, the back "buttresses" are wrinkled and it doesn't look very sturdy at all. Form has to follow function.

I see in your picture that you are hiding one in the back and that you are putting the muscle up front.

As for my "girl's car" comment, I just thought that they marketed those cars for young working women. I guess it was just my experience that all the people I knew who owned one were girls...just like I stated.

I guess the "fruitcake" comment might have been a little harsh though.

The argument could be made for the Miata I suppose, but I wouldn't call any car that is available strictly as a manual transmission a "girl's car." Now the Mustang, on the other hand...
And for the record, that bone stock S2000 was nearly as fast as my bolt-on '01 GT 5spd.

I'd rock the hell out of that S2000... has to be a blast to drive. And that's my favorite hardtop.

There's a guy that parks right beneath the office window of my apartment that has a turboed Silverstone S2000. Gotta talk to him eventually about his setup.
