    Agree. But it is a luxury option and as such it is treated. Do you need it? No. It is a matter of how much do you want it. If you do, it is a 10k plus shipping... Like Ricky Martin would say: "Do you really want it, do you really want it? Go, go, go... Me: No, no, no. I don't only do not want it but do not need it. Perks of owning the Coupe. I am spending way less in painting all the plastic trims in Nero.

    I never even thought that something like this could happen.
    Good to look at the mods and see issues that could possibly happen, then ask the manufacture if this is a possibility and if they would stand behind their product.

    Talking with other members on the forum really helps to see things like this.
    Seeing what has happed to other owners of our cars and other manufactures is a huge plus in life.

    Thanks,
    GG

    430 was a nice
    Yeah, I had a coupe for a short while and that bonnet looked really good from the outside! Wasn’t a big fan of the back visibility though because I drive my car a good bit.

    I kinda got used to it a little but the Spider’s back visibility is as good as it gets so it works better for me. Both great cars though!!

    I could relate to the glass analogy in comparison to the Lexan on the coupe. However, it would add weight. I am with you. I like the Lexan. I can only imagine that glass breaking and how much and costly it would be.

    Don't sweat it. You my friend, are far from being such thing.
