Default The Original Power Convertable Soarer (almost)

Im sure alot of you are familiar with earlier Soarer models, including the Z20 made from 1986-1991.5... but for those that aren't, there was a model made that had a powered top that opened up the entire roof. Heres a pic of one. I just thought some of you may enjoy a little lesson in our Soarer (and SC) lineage and history.

And dont worry, I would take the 430SCV anyday over this car, but its still kind of neat for this technology to be used on soarers that long ago!

that is really really cool, toyota should come out with something else like that now, especially on a four door car, think many many young people would jump on it
