Is Roadster different underneath then coupe

shouldn't be different. From what I read, the Z was designed from the start as a roadster, then the top was added to the coupe, whereas the normal process is to chop the top off and try to hold it together with braces... can't recall where I read it or id post the quote.

Actually, conceptually as both as far as looks. The 370Z vert still adds extra bracing and the roof on the coupe is functionally supportive. Two convertables where they don't need to mod the frame are the Vette and the Lotus.
