BTW, this is a photoshop job...everything above the waistline of this car doesn't actually exist.

I love the look, but it wouldn't be suitable for racing (helmet). Callaway used to, and may still, do chopped C4's.

I actually like the look, but might not chop it that much. I'm 5'5" so it's not a problem for me.

I wonder how they can chop a C4 top. There's already no headroom and I'm only 5'8". That alway bugged me about the C4. I love the headroom of the C5 now ... what a difference
