Strength of Murcielago Roadster roof?

Question for owners of the murci roadster, how fast have you gone with the top on without encountering any problems? I know the manual says 100mph is the max...however I think it could take more than that.

I remember someone telling me he was in a Murci when the lid flew off, they were only doing 90.

No way I would do 100 with that top, even if they rate it for that. I would go without it or with the carbon fiber hard top.

They are roadsters, they are designed to be 99% of the time without the top.
The top is only supposed to be on in adverse weather .

They are now working on a new one in glossy black finish.
It's a new design which complements the car a bit better. I should be ready for production around March 2008.
