Correct me if I'm wrong but I've seen carbon fiber painted before.

I would tend to agree that CF is paintable.

I know that it is probably designed to account for the lack of body on the car once the roof is removed, but removing the top on a car that was designed to be a full coupe seems like a terrible idea to me. My friend had an old Supra, and driving with the top off made it feel as if we were riding a piece of tin foil over 10,000 speed bumps.
