Sorry to hear about that accident (especially for the biker). That's a tough one . . . Dude, what happened to you? Got my nuts caught by a shark fin! LOL. I'd also love to hear what they do with that roof.

On another note. . . . . . . . . am I the only one here who was expecting to see an article talking about a set of Michelins? Just saying.

They're great tires! Super, super sticky and very quiet. Though anything would be better than the Bridgestone EL42 RFTs the car came with! The only thing I've yet to determine is how long they will wind up lasting...

I don't want the roof to be painted black but I may look into a black vinyl while i'm at it.
Just say no to black roofs!

Sad to see another 450h get injured. Well hope the motorcyclist is good, def paint the roof it would look nice and unless your gonna resell it, its a good idea.
