Just a thought...

I just came across a S2000 group on Facebook with pictures via a friend of mine,... now i'm not a fan of the S2000 but the following pictures of a Z4 coupé wannabe drew my attention...
If something like this would exist for the Z4 roadster, then we could have a coupé in the winter and during the summer the sun on our face
What you guy's think of this?
i know for sure that if something like this exists for the z4 roadster i would buy it!

honda poseurs...the purple wheels kind of say it all.

That aftermarket piece is likely to rattle, flex, creak and rub. Fit/finish looks off, note the uneven line of the window cutout and rear base.

Yeah, you won't see one on my roadster. If you want to have a roadster and a coupe, just buy an e89.

If you're talking about the white piece, that's clearly a prototype of some sort. Personally I see it as more of a cosmetic mod than anything else. To each his own in that regard.. Spoon is generally know for having good quality but ridiculous prices. While I'll agree that the pics the OP chose are particularly ricery, I don't think it looks THAT bad on less ostentatious cars. It's not something I would ever do, but it's not something I'd put on the same level as purple wheels or the whole "HELLA FLUSH" movement.



Keep in mind there is no coupe version of the S2000.

I think the S2000 is one of the greatest cars to come out in the last decade (240hp and 2800 lbs with go-kart like handling and classic roadster lines for $30k?). It's a shame they never bothered to really update it and keep it fresh.

It looks kind of tacky but also unique at the same time. The lines might not be good as the Z4's but it's still a pretty cool looking car, I have to admit. The problem is it is lacking the S54.

It almost looks kind of like what would happen if a Porsche and Nissan did the dirty.

If I ever were to get a convertible for the summers, an S2000 would actually be pretty high on my list. The spoon hardtop looks fugly from the back. This one doesn't look so bad, but it's very "Cayman."

I have always liked the S2000. I thought that they should have re-introduced a refreshed version as an Acura model, to attract some of those elitist SOBs that drive BMWs!

See, I am not a fan of the hardtop available for our cars. My dad has an older Miata with the OEM hardtop and it looks pretty good. The first thing I searched for was a hardtop when I bought my MR, but I didn't like what I found. Just my opinion though.
