Why keep the windows up?
I saw a Sebring today with all four up and top down,
and also a Fox-body Mustang with the two rears up.
I never leave the glass up, cold or not, if the top is
down; that's what the heater is for. Isn't it?

shooter jay..wtf is up with you man 
. why dont you stop your 
just because everyone is stating their opinion and it isn't the same as yours. Hell even my girlfriend thinks that having the windows up and the top down is pretty gay and every other girl i know..and truthfully if girls think that it is gay then thats pretty bad

in my 95 vert it was simply a matter of what i was doing that day. if i was going tork the windows were up and the top was down. as gay as that is the wind doesn't mess up your hair as bad and you don't feel beet up when you get there. however if i was just cruising to the lake or through town windows were down. i rarely put the top up so when it was chilly windows up heater works better. but i can still feel the air on my face while my body was warm. some want to drive and get a tan and not get beet by the wind. ok yeah looks gay but that is why.

Personally, I drive my convertible to suit me, not others on the road. On really cool nights, it feels nice with the windows up and top down. And I'll enjoy it how I like it. That's why I bought a convertible!

Anyway, if my car was a garage queen then it might always have the windows down, buy I drive mine whenever I can (ie, the roads aren't sloppy) and put 20k miles on it last year between march and november, so plenty of cooler times where top down windows up is a great option. Unless you care too much what other people might think of you, instead of just doing things based on what YOU think is right for you.
Besides, it's only the touch of a button or three to put any or all up or down, it's not like it's stuck like that until I can pull over and stop.

The only time my windows are up and tops, T-tops that is, down is when i park the car to go to the store. I have never driven a vert until last month a Mercedes SLK280, I would have to say I always had everything down unless it was raining. wait a sec I drove it fully open on Thansgiving and I am in Boston. It does bother me when I see top down and windows up but pink cars, and stupid people that turn without a signal bothers me too. But hey to each his own preference top down windows1/2 down it is your car.

Who is we? You mean the SLK or the TA? Not too many people like
the headlight conversion. I don't want to hijack the thread either

If you could P.M me a link to a better pic of your T/A front, that'd be awesome. Im digging the look but sick of squinting. As far as this thread, everything that can be said has been and weve argued cried and beat it to death. Pics of the T/A > this thread.

Ya, I used to own a pewter SS vert, for 3 years to be exact. It was my only vehicle at the time and the top was only up if I wasnt driving the car. Never once did I put the windows up with the top down, I hate the look.
