The coldest its been when my top down was between 39 and 41 degrees that night. It was pretty chilly on the back of my head.

doesn't the manual tell you not to put the top down if the temp is less than 50?

Not only can you crack the plastic window, but our tops are a plastic/vinyl, and when its cold it doesn't fold and stretch easily. You can EASILY rip/punch a hole in the top with the frame.

Haven't any of you noticed that when the temps are cold that your top doesn't go down as far as it normally does?

I had it down last week at night at about 42 degrees. I won't go under 40 degrees with the top down and even at 40 degrees I'll be in my jacket, leather gloves and hat.

There was a time last winter when I went top down under 32 degrees with light snow falling just to get some funny looks from people!

I dont know what the temp was when these pics were taken, but this was back in March when VintageMac and I pre-drove a route for a groupdrive. Yes, that is falling/blowing snow you see in the pics.

It was really cold though!
