Never really paid much attention to this before,but now that I own the S2000 I tend to notice that most people with convertibles don't put the top down. I'm not talking about weather in the 40 or 50 degree range either. The other day, the wife was driving so I decided to entertain myself by keeping a count in my head. It was a perfect day, low 80's, barely any clouds, and a slight breeze. The total count of people who had their top down was 7 out of 21, only 33%.....really? To each their own I suppose.

 

i do not drop it for a short trip

 

You're doin' it wrong.

TOP
ALWAYS
DOWN


Seriously, if I'm leaving the neighborhood, the top goes down. Year round.

 

Yesterday I put my top down to travel literally 75 feet at 5mph....


And to answer OPs question, lots of people NEVER put their tops down and idk why

 

I will put the top down if it's a long enough trip.

 

^^^ this..

 

I always think the same thing when I see everyone top up in nice weather. I have noticed that S2k drivers seem to drive top down more so then in people in other cars

 

I agree. It will be a beautiful day out and I see some many people with their top up.
Sometimes I wis I never bought a hard top

 

because putting your top down too much will make it have rips on the side.... my top has rips on both sides because i live in Cali.. lol

 

I leave it down 99% of the time since its garage parked. Daily driver too I drove a motorcycle for a year before I bought my S2K. Roofs are too fancy for my taste, plus even on miserable days I love the feeling of the wind. I have my top down more than up.. Emergency use only
