Default The joys of a Softtop
While I always love having the top down and enjoying the sun, I learned this morning one thing that sucks about a "soft" top. Someone managed to break into my underground parking lot, cut open the top and steal my sunglasses! Now I am out a good pair of Oakley sunglasses and I have a big 2 ft hole in my softtop.

The worst part is I generally always lock my sunglasses in the secret compartment but last night in a rush I just left them on my center console. Lesson learned!

Bright side is I get a new soft top?
