    Hey, if anything stuffing is what's communist. It stretches the meal to feed more people using cooking byproducts and cheap, minimally nutritious ingredients. :notsure:

    I’m not a stuffing guy either, glad that it was resolved as communism and I can continue to be a true American!

    No, that's American as f*ck. Take a vegetable and cook it in a way that it's bad for you? Doesn't get more American than that.

    I mean, I still don't like it, but at least it's not communist

    If it were a FRC, I wouldn't have bought it. I wanted RWD, targa, manual. My dream would have been a Supra, but I had no budget for one. The 300ZX TT wasn't available when I had to buy a car, so it fit the bill.

    That shit is the creation of Satan! Disgusting!!!!!!!!

    Also I'm kinda allergic to mushrooms so there's that :notsure:

    Hell no, when the option is presented, you ALWAYS get the targa tops! ALWAYS!!!
    I was just thinking Fast and Furious Supra themed C5 Corvette :laugh:

    Also, this just does it for me :drool:

    The FRC didn't have a Targa option...from the factory at least. You can make one, but get your Sawzall ready.

    It’s actually not that crazy to do, as there is a lot of interchangeability among the three body styles.

    https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c5-general/3416643-frc-z06-targa-conversion-diy-how-to.html

    Or

    https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c5-general/3778821-convertible-to-hard-top-conversion.html

    then convert the hardtop to a targa roof and have all three. Of course none have the hatchback roof line which looks the best, but that’s a side issue.

    I just said I don't want a FRC. I was looking for the lowered vette, not the roof.

    Don't most of the C5's have targa's?

    Depends on the place. If smoking in general is permitted, yes. If it's not, then no.

    That said, I saw Cypress Hill several years ago at House of Blues and everyone was lighting up..security just didn't bother to address it

    My apologies, misunderstood.

    Three body styles, hatch, FRC/Z06 and vert. Only the hatch has the targa, but all hatches are targa.

    My above link shows people that have turned FRC cars into targas or verts into a FRC, but with the FRC part removable or even a FRC part with a targa. They’re all Legos.

    I only like the hatch body style myself.
