Mesh Top works great when it's too intense for topless.
There's an adult joke in there somewhere......

I finally weighed both of my tops today. The hard top is heavier, as I'd expected (I believe I've seen a post in another thread indicate the opposite like quoted below), but obviously both are light.
Hard top: 22 pounds
Soft top: 12 pounds
[soft top included support slats, but not bag, since I never keep the bag in the car and none of this adds significant weight]
[Note: my hard top is a clear coat one. I assume that there might be some significant difference in the production process, but wouldn't think that there would be a significant weight difference from a non-clear-coat one. Someone should weigh a non-clear-coat one and post here if it is significantly different.]
Jake at Tesla just reported back to me that the clear coat hardtop weighs the same as the painted hardtop.
I had heard from several sources that the clear coat CF hardtop would weight more than the body colored painted hardtop. The reasoning had to do with the differences between structural and cosmetic carbon fiber and maybe the thickness of the resin. However, this was all before Tesla actually started shipping the clear coat tops, and was perhaps speculation. Do we have actual mass numbers now?Jake at Tesla just reported back to me that the clear coat hardtop weighs the same as the painted hardtop.
sorry for a silly question on an old thread,
but what is a mesh top?!?
I got caught for the first time this week as well. Went to the gym at 11:00AM. Bright and sunny California Summer weather. Came out at 12:10. Shopping center had turned on the sprinklers! Who runs sprinklers at noon
Still had a dry towel from the gym - so not too bad.
