Who is ready for top-down season?
 
...in Florida. No more 100 degree weather. No more menacing summer sun but a kinder, gentler autumnal sun.

Apologies if you are putting on winter tires or storing for summer. Well...sorta. :D

It is still much too hot here in Arizona.
We break 100s on the daily.

It's always top down season in southern California.

That's why the Jägermobile has 253,000 miles on it.

On the doorsill, I wrapped the stripes inward and then trimmed them about an eighth inch from the edge of the sill.

I wasn't happy with it, either. :(

The stripes may be coming off next spring. They were an experiment and I'm still kind of on the fence about them.

Me. Temperature was in the 40s this morning, but topped out around 80.

D@mn good show! That has got to be one of the cleanest, sexiest Boxsters I've ever seen :eek: :cool:

Love the color!

cfos 09-20-2013 07:10 PM

Thanks! It should be pretty clean -- I only take it out 1-2/week. Usually take the family-hauler X3.

Bummer.. I think I just missed top down season here in Virginia! Days are starting to top out in the low 70's (when the sun is actually shining).

I'm thinking of dressing up warm with a toboggan and heavy coat and say "to Hell with it".:cool:

Joe B 09-21-2013 06:45 AM

It's been top down season for the past 5 months here in Wyoming. Not for long though; snow in the mountains recently. I'll be getting the hard top out in a few weeks. Then skiing (:dance: yipee!).

Johnny Danger 09-21-2013 08:35 AM

Phew, I can't believe some of the rough looking neighborhoods our members live in. What ever happened to McGruff the Crime Dog ?

KRAM36 09-21-2013 09:46 AM

Been driving with the top down since March. I can honestly say I've put more miles on this car with the top down, then up. :)

jaykay 09-21-2013 10:29 AM

I hope the forum moderators take note of the cruelty of this thread

WhipE350 09-21-2013 12:04 PM

Heck in Charlotte we drive with the top down all year. In the summer if hot just ride in the evenings or head to the high country, in the winter turn on the heat wear a warm hat and roll! I'll take 40 and sunny over 95 and cloudy!

I will say when they panic about snow flurries they spray that crap on the roads and it stays there for weeks until a rain washes it away.

Besides the sun is always shining with the top up! And the Silver Surfer gets loanly, how can I leave a beauty like this sitting!

Starting to be top down weather for us here in Texas too. Today was the first day to be a cool 80 degrees. Only time Texans could go around top down was at night time or early morning when it was hotter!
