That looks nice, but in the US we call it the roof.

Hmmm, if that is so then it might be something us current Spyder owners could use vice putting the top up if just running in somewhere for a short period of time, if the buttress hole are in the same location.

Won't work because you have to have the cantilever attachment for the tension cable.

What's stitching on the roof going to cost 15k as part of the weissach package?

Personally not a fan of deviated stitching on a soft top …

The RS lettering looks “big”, maybe the new 992 RS font?

It seems there’s a little Gurney flap on the rear spoiler:
