AC question
I have a 2000 coupe with 39k on the clock. Other than the standard fuel gauge/sensor issues, it's a great mechanical car.
Living in FL, I rarely have the targa top on. Today I drove it from the dealer to the house with the top on, and put the AC on (I know, you northern guys are sick right now). The compressor clicked on, and I felt it go on, but no cold air blew out. It was the same warm air as the vent I had on before.
Is this maybe just a freon issue, or a compressor issue? Thanks!

I am not an expert, but I am researching about A/C for another type of issue in my 2k coupe. (I am also in Florida)
The click you hear could be only that the compressor clutch is "engaging", but does not mean that the system is working.
Check to see if you have any freon. (maybe you have a leak), then the electrical, ( I tend to try the easy parts first)
