I have a Red TA with a white top and it looks nice but hard to keep clean so if your car is a daily driver you'll need to stay on top of it and use lots of protectant. I show mine so its like brand new but it never sees much outdoors. Go black and it'll match your interior.

In my opinion vert tops shouldn't come in other colors besides black. Do what you want though man, it's your car.

Sweet thanks for the opinions.. I really would like the white, but like you say it will be a bitch to keep clean... especially in the south, all the rain and pollen and such

I used to have a tan top on my Camaro and switched to black. My Mustang has a white top which looks good with the car being blue with white lettering, but it's tough to keep clean. I'd go with a black top on a red car, your grille is black and the badges are black. White would almost stand out too much on the car, at least in my opinion. White would be different though, I don't think I've seen red with a white top.

Here is tan



Here is black



Trust me, you won't like it in tan or white. I have had both, the white top I had was a monster to keep looking nice and in my view washed the colors of the car out, the black will make the red on the car pop better.

Everyone is right on the money about the white tops. Just a bear to keep real nice. Even though my taupe (tan) top is flawless it takes extra care compared to a black. You just see everything on colors other than black. I voted black in your poll.
