No problem for me with top down either. I like it when I can't hear what she wants to say and that there is no talking.

I've been up to 100 a few times with the top down and it wasn't bad at all in fact I really didn't even think about it.





Of course that might have been because I was at the track and had a helmet on.

I got it just wear a helmet when you get on the highway and the wind noise won't bother you at all.

the fastest i've ever gone w/ the top down.. was the fastest i've ever gone w/ the gone period... 120+

if you don't like the top down @ 70mph, sell the car and go get a Z... cuz you're missing 50% of the point of this car...

This is to funny, Why buy a convertible? My wife puts her hair in a pony tail, carries a brush and off we go. My only limit with my wife is I can't go over 90 mph with her in the car. Top up or down. Remember, drive fast and swerve a lot.

50% of the car is driving on the freeway at 70mph+?

I use Ricks 7/8 wind screen and head rest fillers. Cut down wind dramatically.

Honestly the $20 (shipped!) headrest wind blockers from www.ricks2k.com made a really noticeable difference. Well worth the $20 and the easiest install ever. Buy them now!
