I’ve been hoping somebody would make this top since I saw a render a few months back. I would happily wait another 18 months if that’s what it took. Soft top has done well in winter, so far, summer will be even better. I am in no rush for a hardtop, excited for a few options to pop up in the next couple years

Haha, well thankfully I ordered a 2.3 because I want a manual transmission. I did look at defenders. The bare minimum price plus options was $67k for a 2 door built to the way I wanted. My friend had one for 7 months, it spent 4 months in the shop.... I have heard they fixed a lot of first year issues though.I've had my Defender since early September. No issues. How're those 2.7's working out?
Just kidding, of course.
On-topic, I like this top. I wasn't trying to get a Bronco for the removable top, so something like this would have been great. With the dogs in the Defender, we refer to those smaller top windows as "snout portals".Now, if we can just get Ford to lux up the interior a bit more and add in all the fancy tech features I like, I can trade back for the Bronco that I would have waited until this week to get (let the dealer have it).
And you are right, I do not really plan on removing my top either. I would have been happy with a fixed top, but no one makes a 2 door off road SUV. Thankfully I like bare bone cars like my Suzuki. haha I have a benz and town car for when I wanna be classy...
If Ford would have offered the 2.7 with a manual, I'd have still waited out the delays!Haha, well thankfully I ordered a 2.3 because I want a manual transmission. I did look at defenders.

I still like the Bronco, which is why I stick around - very curious to see what's in the works for future models, plus the aftermarket!You're correct about early / first year new Defenders, btw - I'd avoid the 2020's.
