There is no separate manual for the roadsters, as far as I know. A 2010 or 2011 manual should have a section for the roof. In the set of files that I have labeled as for a 2011, there is a file...

The problem is cost. Name one low volume Nissan product besides the GT-R that has a unique engine. The days of every model getting its own engine is over.

Gun Metallic/Bordeaux Top -- Am I Insane?

I really like this color combination, but I'm worried about it being so off the wall as to make resale difficult. The interior is also Bordeaux. Am I insane, or is this a sharp looking car?

Texas but will travel - 2012 6MT Roadster Touring/Sport/Nav

Must be black/black. I could drop the requirement for Nav for the right deal. Would also consider a 2011 for the right price....but the price better be really right.
