Has anyone given thoughts to a chopped roof GD3? I think it would look a lot more aggressive and sport car like. Inspired by the chop-top subaru wrx car from a autobody shop in japan:

can anyone photoshop a chop-top gd3? any thoughts?

 

 

Thought of it, But then the window work is too insane. I imagine it looking great, but will lose all the great head room.

 

too much head room imo. i use the nagisa bucket rail and have 1 foot of useless space above my head.

 

could someone do a photoshop

 

 

something close

 

why not just get the EP3?

 

yeah i figured it'd look pretty similar to an EP3. and looking at that photoshopped pic..i think the fit would just look better slammed with the high roof

 

looks like the dodge magnum

 

ewwwwwww!!

 

EW!!!
why not convertible + roll cage then ?

i'd much rather do Canvas top !

 

i actually like it, yea it does look like the dodge, but i dont like the dodge b\c of the big engine space. fit is much smaller ;]

 

not my cup of tea but if someone does it pls. post some pics!

 

like the signal auto civic?

if i was to try to make the car more agressive, id put a fat ass widebody on it

 

not everyone is asian

<---- 6'7"

 

One thing I like about the Fit the great all around visibility, most of the cars I test drove have all gone to the chopped look with little 3" high windows by the time it gets to the back of the car. For some of them I sat in the first thing I noticed was I only had limited side visibility with no rear visibility (even through the rear view mirror because the back window was so slanted and chopped it was practically useless). So I got out and told the dealer they have a shitty design for visibility and went elsewhere to look.

I use my mirrors but I also like the option to do shoulder checks as well, it is one thing I don't like to comprimise on. This is one case where Function > Style IMO.

Becides that, the cost involved in doing it nicely would be retarded and it would screw up your curtain air bags.

 

thats exactly and probably the most thing i hated about the prius, i like looking through the rear window, and the prius, ugh its not even tall or wide. and i hate slanted/angled rear winodws. i mean yeah the fit's is angled, but not that far off from 90 degrees.

 

not so useless in a rollover.......

 

the doors are too tall, therefore it looks pretty silly... might be better if the fit would ever be a 2 door like the civic SI
