Default I dunno... the car shown is the 60th Anniv. model and it is standard

equipment, I think... I'm not sure if that's the technolgy in the Porsche Targa, but that one does other neat tricks - like sliding back and parallel to the rear window! I think the premium for a targa is ~$7k?

Default nevermind about the targa, it's not electrochromatic and it has a powered

shade thingy...

Default But you can't open it, can you. This is great for light, but not air.

Default I think it's the same deal... tilt only... for $300k (or whatever) you can hire

Karl Lagerfeld to sit there and fan you if you need "fresh" air... :-p

Default I like light! In coupe-like cars, it also makes the cabin feel more airy...

I'm actually OK w/ the tilt only part... I like being to leave it tilted open when it is hot.
