    I've seen a T-top off a Camaro fly off a car in front of me on a Freeway, pretty spetacular flying through the air then shattering when it hit the pavement in front of me.

    The AOL news had the "Toyota replacing 4 Million Gas Petals" headline right under the Corvette one.

    I haven't seen one lose a roof, yet. But I have seen plenty of Corvettes get their doors blown off!

    Want the immediate fix for that?

    Put the targa roof in the hatch. Go do 160-something MPH. But wear earplugs.

    I have a friend with a 2002 Z-51. 164mph on I-405N from Puyallup to Renton. On a weekday. Sometimes it's a miracle that I've never been in jail...
