Whats the lowest temperature you would consider putting your top down at? This is assuming it is decently sunny.

I've put my top down in some pretty cold weather...the heater works very well to keep things toasty.

I suppose the heater would help to keep my 'thing' toasty. But I am 6 foot 2, and my head sticks up above the top of the windshield, with a minimal hair covering [I refer to my head, not the windshield, so please do not accuse me of a misplaced modifier]. I suppose that's why I moved down to South Carolina. Over 60 degrees and sun, there is a good chance the top is down. Otherwise, not very likely.

Spoiled here in Palm Springs, top is down just about everyday, but with my thin socal blood if the temp drops below 50 the top doesn't.

Here in So Fla, we're spoiled too. I've been down here long enough (3+ years) to think that anything less than 50 degrees is "freezing" by our standards. The other day was about 42 deg. in the morning & I opted to keep the top up.

As long as I'm not getting wet inside, my top is down. Fortunately it almost never gets down to 30 degrees here. The heater does a pretty good job of warming the occupants when the air is cold (the air conditioner is pretty good when it's hot too).

I bought the car to drive with the top down and that's how I always do it.

I my car top down this morning and it was 29 on the outskirts of Seattle. If it is not raining the top is down. But boy it was the ragged edge of what I could handle with no gloves, windows up, heater full blast, and the tunes turned up. Could not do it everyday but once in a while I am crazy enough to do it.
