It is supposed to have the lower screws. Mine does, and so did the one I had before that. Tell your dealer to put them in.

Thanks, Jay

See? I'm not crazy. If they really ARE out to get you, that means that you're not paranoid, right?

I actually like just leaving them open anyway. Good thing I don't still live in New Orleans.

Like Lynn said, take the car back and get the other half of your screw set. While you're at it, look into the little stainless steel handle that you can get for that area. Makes closing the hatch a little easier, and I don't disturb the dirt on my paint if I use the handle to close it. :p

Tommy, there is a handle built into the bottom of the hatch just to the right of the latch.

Great discussion here.

Thanks for all the posts. I particularly enjoyed reading about the gripes about the glass roof. In spite of that, there is NOOOO way I would consider buying this car without it. Besides the c-coupe, I can only think of the P911 with it's beautiful glass roof. What a engineering piece of work from the boys and girls in Germany. These types of options don't come around too often. Rain-X anyone?
