One thing I have noticed -- there's a cloth glare shield that comes down over the painted portion inside the top when it's up. When you fold the top, the cloth portion folds up and covers the back glass. Very nice design, but coupled with the glass rear windblock, it makes it nearly impossible to clean the inside of the rear window.

I had a touch of haze on mine from out-gassing, I'd assume, and had to stop the top in mid operation, in order to reach up under that cloth covering and do a contortionist cleaning of the inside of the rear window while standing outside the car.

Not crazy about stopping the top mechanism in mid-stride, but a dirty window is a major safety hazard in this car.
