The quirky roof would not be a stopper for me. A few cars ago I had a Lotus Elise. ;-) And long ago a 914 and a T top MR-2. By comparison the 718 is a piece of cake!

He's not telling people they are carbon ceramics, that color is just sexy. I considered doing the same, as the red is so boring and clashes with my green.
