Nope. The fact is that it's easier to "render" a realistic looking car
with the top up then with it down. Less detail needed, and ragtops
lend themselves well to fairly crude "curved plane" renditions.
Even with the processing power available, game designers are encouraged
to save clock cycles wherever possible on the graphics rendering to
make sure the frame rate stays up.
