First, do any of you convertible owners have
any experience with removable hard tops and
secondly,does anyone know where I might find one,
preferably a used one ?

These seem to get good reviews. $2k for the C5 version new, I seriously doubt you'll ever find a used one for sale.

I've seen a couple of these and they seem to look very well made. The body shop that paints them is critical. I was told by one of the owners matching the Bowling Green Metalic was tough.

It is still listed I bumped it to the top $1550 but it is mag red and in Oregon. Shipping then painting is the issue but you could save big if you gotta have it... mod fever?

Thanks guys for the input.I had seen the one in
Oregon but shipping to Alabama knocks it in the
head. I like the looks of the Smooth Line and the
price is pretty good too.

Were you thinking of going with the large or small window? Both those I've seen had the large window. Good luck with the search.

I think I like the looks of the small
window better.
