Except that you cant just add the convertible option to your hard top!
When the GT2 came out, the 911 turbo and 922 carrera were no longer the
flagship - this is exactly like what you describe in my mind. Perhaps
if the base unit was a convertible and you could just add a hard roof,
spoilers, wheels etc that would be like the BG-10.

Pheeew, I don't want to upset anyone - this is quite an interesting
debate.
