Cabs are great...until the liquid nitrogen sprays you in the head...then transition to the coupe...and wish you'd done it MUCH sooner.

Wear sunscreen. Lots of it.

 

Agree; not a trivial issue. Owned a Boxster S for two years (my one and only roadster in a long line of vehicles) and felt that the sun exposure was just too much. That and the fact that my ears would ring from the noise after an extended freeway trip with the top down. There were times when having a convertible was great, but basically I'm a coupe person.

 

Have put almost 10000 miles on the Pcar and only 100 has been with the top up, maybe less.
Unless your gonna track it ...its gotta be a cab. Summer, winter it dosnt matter

 

Oh yes I live in Illinois. 20 and sunny top down

 

I live in sunny FL, still a cab holds little for me. FL in unbearably hot 8-9 months out of the year, yet I still see people with the top down and it's 90F.

I honestly don't know how to operate my sunroof, opened it 2, maybe 3 times.

Coupe, for me.

 

Coupe for me. I have owned cabs before, including a 911 cab. I don't like the lines of the cab as much as the coupe, and don't like the chassis flex and rattles with the cab.

 

Yep. That's what I figured. Those who love the cab, use it and love it. Why? Because they can. Those that don't, don't. Not much need for sunscreen over the last couple days here but nice cool open top weather. No rain. The top would be down.

 

Not trivial at all. However, for those of us who work, most of our time with the top down isn't mid-day anyway. And, once the temp is above 60 or 65 F, if the sun is shining the heat is too intense anyway. After susnset in warm weather, and early am, are the ideal times to be out. In the heat of the day you gotta keep the squash covered with a ball cap.

 

@Zues, stick to Coupe... you live in Vancouver afterall. I know it's very tempting when you see the Cabs driving around during the *nice days*... but think about it! How many days a year do we get that's top-up friendly? No so many!

I'd definitely consider Cab in CA, AZ, FL, TX, and some other warmer cities. For us, it's really a bit of a waste.

 

Alex; I live in NJ and my top is down more than 7 months a year (April-October and some March days too!.......exactly what weather are you talking about?

Get the Cab all day long!
