The new C928 would wind-up sporting a variety of extensive modifications and upgrades. Among the most obvious was an extensive reconfiguration of the interior appointments, redesign of the vehicle’s doors and the creation of a handsome new trunk for luggage, s a result of the vehicle’s new convertible top. The C928’s new interior featured lush Connelly leather hides out of England, luxury only previously engaged by the automakers Rolls Royce and Jaguar. When in the down position, he new convertible top is skillfully stored entirely in its own concealed storage compartment, feature relatively common by today’s standards but nearly unprecedented in the late 70’s and early 80’s.
