Had my HT on last year for about 4 months. This year not had a chance to install it. Had lots of opportunity though with sunny days to get the top down including NY day.
Does look very with the HT on though, but lucky I can garage it every night!

mines staying on

Looks so much better with Htop on rather then an umbrella!

Other reason for me is security,I would feel more confident leaving Htp on when parking in less familiar places.

Howevere waiting for warmer weather and therfore I may change my mind

its not that on the silver ones they come with square wheels, as all anybody does with them is look at them.
I don't think my EVO's are square But maybe I've taken the corners off in the 8k miles they have done!

Keep toying with getting a GT/hardtop but every time I get in and drop the roof I think why bother?

Jamie,

I really don't think your hard top should be squeaking and rattling. sure it's fitted properly?

I take mine off and on all the time!

Depends on the weather and temp!

I may go out with it in the morning to the office. As I also garage it at work, and I may need to use during the day. I usually ask one my colleagues to help me take it off if it is a nice warm day.

Than put it pack on way back home in the evening when its too chilly anyway to go topless.

But I agree that with the HT, there is less feel so you drive slower.

Drive Fast: Topless!

cruising around: Hard top on!
