T Tops?
I have yet to hear a single word about the camaro coming out with t-tops. I wonder why they decided not to make this an option.

Design of the roof was the major part, and another was that the focus groups that GM polled didn't want them anymore.

Don't blame me I filled out that survey back before they announced production and specifically said I wanted T-Tops in the comments section!
HUD too.

Not another t-top thread
 I've owned 3 camaros with t-tops but no matter how many photo chops I see it just drags the car down. |

New federal regs for roof crush also had a lot to do with it.
I see that you are a fairly new member, welcome!! Do a search on T-tops. You will find some interesting posts, even some very nice photoshops of the Gen 5 with T-tops.

I had T-Tops in a 2nd gen. Didn't use them a lot. I have them now in my 4th and probably have out 10x a year. I like them more for the glass while they are on. |
