Most cars today are Unibody and cutting off the top ruins the integrity of
car.  It is very much more difficult to make a sturdy
>convertible than a hard top and is not uncommon for the convertible to
weigh much more than its hardtop counterpart.

True.  But cheap, rigid unibody roadsters are not impossible.  Spridgets are
unibody.
