A Z06 owner and his friend are pulled over on the side of the road, friend has the camera and standing outside the car while owner is messing with roof.

Owner and camera guy get in the new targa Z06 and drive for a second, owner says he loves it, then it shows them at some car show.

Why would you kick the roof off of a Z06?

It was half off anyway, and the recall will cover putting a new one on (with better glue).

EDIT: Correct. Murcielago.

And Viper, I believe that's a F430 Spider. As for the last, it's a F355.

Thanks F1 for the clarification, F355 always sounded the best to me.
