Occupants are for ****.

But seriously.. thats kinda neat. Colors are terrifying, and sleepy headlights are gay, but the idea isn't bad as long as the top still works.

it looks like that seat is right where the spare tire, the top support (for when its closed) and integrated rear strut support would be. So either they needed to cut that out, or the rear seat is very thin in that area. I think it'd be nice to have rear seats in the 'vert, just for those times when you really need to hold a 3rd person. You'd have to keep the top up whenever the seats were being used, and it doesnt look like the top has anything to rest on when its down (possibly fatiguing the joints or closing mechanism), but its cool to see it.

It'd be good for insurance reasons, no?

seems like a waste. If the FC was a passenger car they would have added another door or seats large enough for anyone besides leg-less midgets. If you want a 4 seater vert then look into another car. on a scale of 1-10 I give this one a 4.

go get a real cabriolet, and then do a rotary swap, it will be more of a 4 seater rotary vert than this crap.

gotta admit the exterior looks pretty decent.

It'd be fine if the front passenger sacrificed some leg room, I think. Assuming that the people in the back are under 5'5".

^thats just mean... dont like a color scheme.. shame shame .. as far as i know.. the FC was NEVER safe..

it looks fine. if the interior red is the same as the red on the outside, its np, the camera does not gloss the seats, so its looks like it doesnt match. Im tall, and it looks like i could fit in the back seat, if the cars integrity has been enhanced with the mod, i say well done. I dont even like red.
