The retractable roofs never really caught on. Increased rigidy, increased safety, and open air motoring.

God they're ugly, which is probably the biggest problem.

Is that a Regal? I am a huge Convertible fan but I see how a retractable roof would be a big plus.

Been there, done that. I present the Baur TC4.

The rear section - from the b-pillar bar back - folds down, and there's a hard cover for the section over the front seats that fits in the trunk when not in use.

Sunroofs are too cheap and convertibles look so much better for about the same price.

Should we compile a list of all factory retractable roof cars?

Toyota Soarer Aerocabin

Subaru Legacy Aero Roof (Not actually sure if done by Subaru)

Some asshole would probably toss a large fountain pop into your car.

I've always like this idea - if it has more rollover protection than a convertible, I'm all for it.
