R58 "Put the top down!" Does it ever end?

"Put the top down!" Does it ever end?
Just a question about owning this car.
In the 4 weeks I've had it, I've only showed it to half a dozen people so far (been busy), and 5 out of 6 of them thought it was a convertible and asked me to put the top down.
Apparently it looks to them like the roof should fold down into the boot.
Does this ever stop?

Nope.
I get it all the time. With a white top , custom painted , its even more noticeable.

No it won't. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.
(yes, there's actually a T-shirt)

I'm not affiliated with that site, but I do wear the shirt to meetups to ward off the question

Nice! I'm saving that pic!
I like the "No it doesn't come off" decal but I just can't bring myself to put any sticker/decal on any of my cars. I even went so far as to buy an "Actual Size" decal back in '03 when they first made them, but then couldn't put it on the car.
Sure would like a t-shirt though!
