Default Soft targa top

Anyone know a place that makes a soft targa top that fold up and
bolts up to orginal mounting point? I am planning on
installing a cage and ice box in my trunk and no room for
the original top. Living in South Florida rain can show up
anytime. Thanks for any info.

The only thing I've ever seen that's even close to this is basically a glorified umbrella that's only meant for use while parked.

That's cool. Do you know what kind of speed it's rated for?

I was just watching a YouTube video about the Ferrari F60 America and it's includes a temporary cloth roof piece. It's rated to 75 mph. That would be plenty for most situations.

Not sure about the speed. I just need something to get home dry. Definitely not trying to break records with that top. Lol

The Targa Soft Top for the C4 coupe is rated at 100 miles an hour
Yes it's possible to make one for the C7 if there is enough interest

it was a decent quality piece for the c4. If they make one for the c7 that would be great.

Targa For C5, C6, C7 and C8


Thank you for your interest in our Targa Soft Top
At the moment we do not offer our Targa Soft Top for the C5, C6, C7 and C8.
Perhaps in the future we will develop a prototype for testing.
Right now our focus is on the C4 Corvette. When the demand for the other year Corvettes is there absolutely we will start the process to develop the Targa soft top for them.
Thanks again for your inquiry

thats appears to be a cover to go on the top itself. I think the poster was looking for an actual top that can fold some or flexible to store in the car somehow still with the limited space, but it would mount where the normal top would and secure up the car for the most part and keep it clean / dry for the most part.
