    Has a sunroof/moonroof been installed in a Prius yet? I'm still holding my breath for pictures.

    ASC no longer does the convertible conversion on the Solara. It's done at the factory using an some ASC parts and an ASC engineered process, but the nonsense of shipping bodies to ASC to be chopped, then back to Toyota to be repainted, then to the Toyota assembly line, THEN back to ASC for finishing is done with.

    If you look carefully at the current Solara the rear quarter panel is the SAME for the coupe and the convertible. Why? The coupe was designed with the convertible in mind.

    The current Solara convertible is a few thousand dollars less than the previous one as well. A nice plus.

    ASC is busy with things like the Chevy SSR these days. They even changed what ASC stands for and changed the logo. No more sunroofs and no more chopped convertibles.
