Instead of addressing in every single detail point about the hardtop, it might be easier for you to tell us your reasons for wanting one. And even so, it's your call on whether or not it's worth it.

I've had my hardtop for over a year now on my 2000. I like it a lot! The only thing it improves are a) the looks (subjective) and b) resale value. I got mine because the convertible season where I live is short (too hot in the summer, too cold in the winter).
