I'm really happy to hear this (if it's true). I love my soft top and would never want a hard top. The soft top is light, insulates well, takes up very little room when open so that you have lots of space in the trunk, and it comes down FAST. I really don't want to have to pull over by the side of the road waiting for the hard top to fold in.
Was disappointed to hear about switching to the hardtop originally, but this new news is happy-making!
