That's just not fair! And to rub our faces in it!

Yeah but can you make a cool snow fort in February?

Must be nice. Our area has been lucky so far but winter will be here whether we like it or not.

Been driving top down but 60s here so have to kick the heat on every now and then. Plus since every valley is different one may be 68 and the next 40...

Yeah this sub forum is too riddled with all the moaning our tops cause. Lets face it... who is more committed to the brand than the vert owners who shell out thounds EXTRA to have the roof cut off.

This is one bad assed auto and I'll be damned if I'll let one drop of enjoyment past me by cause of some stuoid rub marks.

Keep the faith my winterized brothers!

Yes, let's not forget why we bought these cars - you can't drop the top on a Camaro coupe or Challenger! And most other cars you can drop the top on are nothing special or exciting.

Rub it in!! I got mine out today, but it was 34, so I had the top up, heater and the butt warmer on. Days like today I understand why they put heated seats in a convertible.

LOL!!


Me, I ride with my sunroof open every chance I get... and my butt warmer seats come in handy as well!!


Man I wish this thing came in T-tops though... that's a huge thing I miss about my Firebird. Cuz they were like the best of both worlds to me... half hard-top, half vert.

I gave the vert a thought when I got my RS... but the price on the sticker was a

But damn... they sure do look sexy as hell with the tops down yall... good job!!

I have to remind myself to have the heat already on some days so the next day I can just auto start it so it will be nice and warm already. Though it was that back today.

To those that live in the warm weather areas I am jealous. Mine is also in storage and I miss it but I am so happy that I don't have t expose it to the snow and salt. Someday I will move to Florida and enjoy it year round

Had top down coming home from work night before last, then it started raining again and the temp dropped ... supposed to be sunny and mid 40's tomorrow, so will likely be cranking the heat up and going top down.

... and btw, just gotta ask this, "Who is on the radio?"
