Haha, it was 75 during the day and 70 at night today in Georgia. It was windy but was clearly a top down weather.

Glad to know I'm not the only one still enjoying this PA topless weather! I had to pick up an oil filter at the dealership two weeks ago when it was flurrying and I pulled up with the top down, to thing a salesman actually approached me

I think so people don't drop the top more often because they get concerned about top wear. I drop it whenever possible. Life it too short to count miles or worry about the top

You're missing out if you don't drive topless. I was driving on the parkway at night in the 40's with the heat blasting and going through the gears to go see my girlfriend... I couldn't stop telling her how amazing it felt for the first 15 minutes I got there haha She loves my 'S' though.

I put the top down as much as possible, so much so that I ripped it when it was in the 30's cause I didn't know I should have waited til it warmed up with the heater, but I patched her right back up and she's great

Top down ftw! But in California there's so much sunshine that a few days without the top down isn't a deal breaker.

helps to be a skinny guy as well...like me! all 5'11" and 150 lbs of me so the seats fit perfect. Plus, everyone hates the ride so they never ask for one.
