Tim, since you issued the challenge, please take this in the humorous spirit intended: How about seeing the ground rush up to meet your head if you roll the convertible 8-) I think Saab probably builds a pretty safe convertible as far as roll-over protection is concerned and it's pretty unlikely, but you never know. Seeing the top slashed to break into the car would probably also introduce some pangs of regret. -Chris '96 900 S 5-door hardtop
