I fall in the 60 plus group, but don't think that this type of mod is my cup of tea. I guess that the look would grow on a person though.

A lot of people liked that look.
What for is beyond me.

I have seen that on younger people's cars too.
We called them Pimp Mobiles.

Absolutely hideous. Older Cadillacs and Lincolns came like that sometimes back in the 80s and 90s. I see absolutely no point in this.

You see many in Florida for a few reasons, the disproportionate number of retirees (senior citizens) and the fact that South East Toyota does this to a fair number of cars before placing them on the lot (port installed, if you will). My uncle's poor Solara is two tone brown with the 'rag' top.

But I don't get WHY? OK it's given that older folks like these things...but why do they like 'em?

Oh I just saw this crazy new smilie icon, so I'll use it. This cat is a beast - massive like mine:

because it gives it more of a Lux & mature look ... i think it looks fine, if youre older

its not like they changed much or added anything ugly, just a simple rag-top attachment ... i wouldnt do it myself, but i dont see anything wrong with it

They like Cadillacs but realized they're POS cars and that Camrys are awesome. So they combine the vinyl top feature with a Camry and....this is the result.
