Isn't it a federal regulation now that convertibles have to have functional roll bars to protect the occupants encase of a rollover? Or should I just be expecting them to fold up and crush my head, at least I wouldn't have to deal with insurance then
If that's true someone better tell nearly every Nissan dealership out there... do a google search for

370z roadster occupant rollover protection

and see how many dealership websites list

Convertible rollover protection: fixed hoop
or
Integrated roll-over protection

Ask whoever you talked to about that... see what they say =p

I don't see any mention of the hoops in the owners manual however which is somewhat disconcerning. =/
