Actually you have less than 200 lbs added weight with the roadster. Not sure about the exact amount of rigidity loss, but the 370 is not like the 350 where the 'vert was an afterthought. It was designed from the get-go with a convertible version in mind and the actual performance loss is rather minimal and more than made up for by the topless experience.
