Thanks for pointing out post 8. I scrolled through it a few times and never saw the badge info or the text. Need better glasses 
I know it's easier said than done, but Lexus should convert all unsold LFAs (sold to Lexus USA and not end buyers) to be like this spyder.

Reflecting on the video, I get a stronger sense that the LFA platform was designed to support a convertible model.
Jay was blasting around on this one off and never pointed to an issue like body flex or any noises typically experienced in a poorly executed convertible issue of a coupe.
Also, I believe in previous videos, a CF roll bar was present. Any ideas if this was remove able, retractable or is there another LFA vert out there?

I had another look at the video and there appears to be carbon fiber bars behind the seats that terminate vertically near the top of the seats.
That being said, my sense is the roll bar we saw in the earlier drifting videos is removable (and that is is the same car).
