But to each his own. I see the soft top as an old wrinkled black sock that's put on to make do. It has those ugly seems and frame ridges that draw attention to itself and not in a nice way.
IMO, I can't think of a single convertible out there that looks "cool" with its top up (retractable hardtops excluded). Even the almighty Ferrari convertibles look really goofy and in some ways, a total abomination with their tops up.

I agree w/ the comments made by xviper. If you plan on getting an '00 or '01 S2000 your softtop will have a plastic window instead of glass. I have a '01 so the rear defroster on the hardtop really comes in handy for me in the winter. Everything aside the #1 reason i bought the hardtop is for the looks

 

actually, you're both right. The interior is plastic and the exterior is aluminum.
