Looking at the ad I was thinking “WTF, that looks EXACTLY like my old neighborhood “. I looked at the map- sure enough! Never saw that car though

I think it's typical of an aftermarket vinyl roof.

You can look at it this way, there is only one seam to worry about and not two.

Seam down the middle kind of makes sense. Less visible, high point of the roof, only one seam instead of two.

That seam is "a thing".....I've seen cars around that have a series of 3 or 4 of those ridges running diagonally along the roof under the top! Why??....I dunno.
