Default Pics with the top up!
It was chilly yesterday and I put the top up and took these pic's. I forgot what it looked like with it up!





I still like top down!

I had heard that keeping the top up when not in use was a good idea, to prevent wrinkles or whatever from forming. Is this a myth? Judging from the looks of your top I think maybe it is. Great looking car BTW.

I do keep the top up but not locked. I keep a cover on it, so I don't see it with the top up much.
