I just ordered a First Edition 4-door yesterday. The First Edition comes built into the price with the Molded-in-Color hard top and a Sound Deadening Headliner, which can only be used with the Molded-in-Color hard top. I'm thinking this Molded-in-Color plastic hard top will fade over time, like most plastic exposed to the sun, so I opted for the Modular Hard Top - Shadow Black - Painted at an extra cost of $1895. I figured the $1895 must make up for the difference above the costs of the Molded-in-Color hard top and the Sound Deadening Headliner, but this doesn't appear to be the case. Today I went to several other models only to find out that they are charging $695 for the Molded-in-Color Hard Top and $495 for the Hard Top Sound Deadening Headliner, or you can purchase the Modular Hard Top - Shadow Black - Painted for $1895.
So for every model except the First Edition if you pick the $695 Molded-in-Color Hard Top and the $495 Sound Deadening Headliner, but then change your mind and pick the $1895 Modular Hard Top - Shadow Black - Painted your price only goes up by $705. However if I do the same thing on the First Edition, the price goes up by $1895. So they are giving no credit for giving up the Molded-in-Color hard top and a Sound Deadening Headliner that is build into the price of the Fist Edition. Note that on the example above, you have to deselect the Sound Deadening Headliner yourself after choosing the Modular Hard Top - Shadow Black - Painted when in all the other models, but why wouldn't you, when it says right in the description that it is for the Molded-in-Color Hard Top. Is there something I'm not getting here?
