Had all three before and I must say T-tops by a mile. Verts have too many problems and always end up looking bad after a few years. I thought "hard top", cool - rigid. Nah... no more rigid than a t-top and t-tops make the car seem bigger inside. I love looking upwards and seeing the sky, even on a rainy da.

T-tops FTW!

i had the chance to get a hardtop car but it was really modded up and i didnt really feel like cleaning up someone elses mess. I ended up with a ttop car but i have no regrets when i pop the tops on a sunny day with a hot girl in the other seat

I have a hard top and a t-top and I love t-tops so much. I used to not care too much until I got that second car with them.

I prefer the look of a hardtop

but I still love the T-tops for summer, even though an open convertible would be SWEET.
