Why doesn't Chevrolet make a hard top convertible Vette?
I am a Vert Vette owner 2008 and I love the car. Been a long time GM (chevy) family, but one of the things I always hoped for is a hard top vert out of the GM house....not sure why they don't?
If not mistaken they did it with the Cadillac XLR, which I think is on a vette chasis?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Best,
Don

Watch what you wish for
As just recently seen in Ecklers corvette catalog, now you too can be like the Miata crowd, for $3200.

Why do you think they use carbon fiber panels, aluminum and magnesium suspension componants and balsa wood in the floors? Every pound counts.
