Default Saw a bonnie with a cloth top

Was going home tonight after work and saw a bonnie with either a cloth or vinal (sp?) top. Had to speed up after a light to catch up to it. It was a 96-99 type with maroon paint and a tan color top? First one of these I've ever seen. First I thought it was a convertable. I didn't really like the look of it though. Maybe thats why I haven't seen many.

I've seen a white 96-99 SE with a black cloth top. I hated the look of it. It didn't have that smooth curve of the roof line. It had the look of those old Lincoln Town Cars with the vinyl top. Too "old" looking, but that'* only my opinion.

I agree, tha only way they might look good on any other color is if the cloth top actually match'es the cars color,

A couple weeks ago I saw a 2001 Pontiac Bonneville SE with a cloth top................It was the ugliest thing ever !!!

All I could do is shake my head for that poor soul. Why would someone do that to that car. As as I passed this car on the highway I felt ashamed of her. Dammit !!!!
