Sun Visors , Sun Roof, Moon Roof, Glass Roof, Convertible?

I don't want a cloth top (I see to many cloth top cars held together with duct tape), I want a hard top that I can unbolt and remove.
You can always pull over when it starts to rain and take the hard top out of the trailer you are pulling to haul it around in or you can take a plastic tarp out of the trunk and cover the car parked on the side of the road till it stops raining. Sounds like fun. Can you say, sun roof?

A convertible hardtop would take up too much storage space, so not a good option; a soft top will hurt aero. A top one would take off and store in the garage is not good, either.
A power operated sun roof over the driver and glass roof over the passenger would be my option. Glass over the passenger would lessen the claustrophobic concern.
Driving w/the top opened and both windows down, the 'open air' feeling is more pronounced w/Elio than in a conventional cabin.....I could live w/that.
All of the above, IMVHO.

Was going to mention this as well, but didn't want to come off overly negative on this less than stellar concept.
All you have to do is go to the factory, watch your car being built and when it gets to this section of the assembly line tell them to stop and you will take it as is. Don't forget the tarp.
