    Default Treasure Coast Miata Hardtop

    Hello my new DFW friends!

    I'm getting ready to order a Treasure Coast Miata hardtop in 1-2 weeks, but want to try and decrease the freight costs. Anyway want to order one with me? We can meet 1/2 way between Tulsa/DFW and it should still be cheaper than direct freight. Especially if a few DFW people get in on it.

    Shoot me a message or reply here.

    I guess it's this: http://treasurecoastmiata.com/i-1027...e-hardtop.html

    Another attempt at a cheap top... by the time you get seals, window, latches, etc... you'd be better off with a used OEM unless you've got a dedicated track/race car.

    Yep, its a cheap alternative to oem for track use. Great design and product, but many people mistakenly believe its a plug-and-play top that will work the same as oem. It requires quite a bit of effort to achieve oem fit/sealing. If someone wanted the ability to start with a brand-new top and put in the work/$$ to add glass, seals, latches, etc and paint it to match, it is a nice option and worthwhile, but it ain't a half-price hardtop for the masses.

    Wow, looking at the cost of all the parts you need, I do not know why you would not just buy an OEM top that will not go down in value.

    It's not for a street car. it's for a race car. There will be no latches, seals, glass, etc. It's bolted to the cage and has lexan across the back.
