Here in houston 75% of the time im very happy I have a hard top due to the heat...but then you get those spans of 2 or more weeks of perfect sunny 70 degree weather and I feel like I would do anything to have t tops

I wanted a hardtop but I wasn't going to pass up my SS just because it had t-tops.

I bought sunshades for the t-tops and the amount the cabin temperature went down was pretty noticable(too much sun here in SoCal) , now I don't mind them at all.

I have a T-top car and wish it was a hard top. I have never taken the tops off, might take them off this summer just to see what the big deal is. I have never liked verts they have always looked funny to me, and like my unkle says you pay more for 3/4's of a car.

T-Tops are nothing like convertible style.
