GM sells them for $2900 on their accessories pageBuy the car with the painted top and then buy the transparent one later from byskipscott.
Has anyone priced them separately after sale?
Nope. I used the painted top once but much prefer the transparent one.I have the transparent roof as well. I read on other forums it can get a bit hot in the summer - but I’m assuming that’s more in the souther states. No worries about that in Calgary! Love the look of it from the inside and out - but I wonder if I’m missing anything with a solid top lol.
Is there a difference in weight? I find the painted top awkward to remove and install.Nope. I used the painted top once but much prefer the transparent one.
The transparent one feels a bit lighter, but still awkward trying to do it solo. The painted top also has better sound insulation which may account for some of the weight.Is there a difference in weight? I find the painted top awkward to remove and install
Yes, CF is an option. Was wondering about the weight on it also.Just a slightly off base question but is the solid exposed carbon fibre top not an option with the C8? I got the dual roof pkg with my C7 and love the exposed cf roof. Have only had the lexan on once. The cf roof is both lighter and quieter in the cabin.
Interesting- the transparent top feels lighter yet is 1.5 lbs heavier- just goes to show how the eyes can affect your other senses and perceptionFound this on MidEngine
14 lbs - Carbon Fiber Top
15.5 lbs - Body Color Painted Top
17 lbs - Transparent Top
For comparison, the C7 Carbon Fiber Top weighs in at 16 lbs.
Interesting. I have never weighed either but I am positive there is more than a pound or two difference between my exposed carbon fibre and my lexan. Either way they are both easy to take off and put on. Maybe that's just me. Been doing it for a lot of vette years.Found this on MidEngine
