Holy crap. The least surprising thing is that it has Dekalb County, GA plates(Atlanta).

That voids the warranty.

It could be, if the car flexes, putting strain on the transmission/driveshaft.

At first, I thought ‘nah, that’s fake’ - but that mess where the C pillar meets the rear quarter panel/gas door tells me it’s real.

And real shoddy.

I was thinking landau until I saw the metal bars poking out where the top is supported. I don’t think I’ve e we seen a 4 door convertible, especially one that sketch

I don’t think I’ve seen one in person, but there are some companies that will convert cars like this - check out the link below, they even made a mess out of an LX570:

Hot take: Fiat’s version of the Miata should’ve been an Alfa Spider not the Fiat 124 we got. Sure, the 124 is a classic, but I think a lot more of the general car-buying public remembers the Alfa Spider (in the US anyway). Plus, the proportions would work pretty well and the pricing is more in line with an Alfa dealer than the place that is selling 500's at $6,000 off sticker with financing for anyone that has a pulse.

I’ve seen that LX570 before. God help us.
