At least with APG taking over production these tops will FINALLY be made.

I wonder what will happen to the Chinesium tops that were made. Do they wind up on Temu? Alibaba? Amazon?
I don’t think any tops were made, nor do I believe anything will come from ADV or APG as it relates to the hardtop. Both companies are not manufactures, with the exception of fiberglass fenders from ADV.

As I said from the beginning, I suspect this project went off the rails over a year ago and they have zero plans for resolution.

Saw a couple more reviews on google with responses from ADV. Unfortunately their responses don't provide much of an update on the status of these tops. :confused:

At this point they probably have script/bot that waits for negative reviews to be posted then pastes this canned response lol

PSA, if you are still waiting on this to happen, Christ will come back first. I advise you get your money back before the dominoes all fall in this Ponzi scheme and there is no more of the other person's money to pay you.

On the contrary! There have been updates to tell you that they are working day and night so that is an update. The most exciting email I received from them was when I received my refund back in April. I am so happy I moved on from their drama after being a first few minutes order holder.

I agree that that's an update, however "working day and night" is not movement on the progress tracker, meaning that they are lying in that response....

Yeah they have been working "day and night" for months. I feel bad for them not being able to sleep for months with all that work they are doing 🥴

This is the one time that I would like to see someone's pants on fire.

As of today they told me they are awaiting containers to be loaded in China and expect delivery end of August / September. I then had to ask is mine on that container in which they replied they have no idea! This company has no control over their own product and have been lying to me for 21 months since I ordered it. They are horrific at communication. Not sure anyone will ever see their hardtop.

Seriously, get out while you can.

If it's just being loaded, then you still have about 20-30 days on the water, week or so to get unloaded at the port and then when it get's to ADV they hopefully will check them for quality.

and if something is wrong the whole process starts again.

They said it was being loaded. I do not believe a word they say. I figure best case is by December of this year.

Unless you HAVE to have a 1 piece, AND you don’t mind putting it together yourself and potentially being blamed if it leaks, get out now and switch to TOR, Anderson, or Ford
