Default Anyone crazy enough to go topless today

I dunno about you guys but when the temps are over 85ish I take the daily driver out as it's too hot for me. Maybe I'm getting old or maybe I just like my dd too much but I don't drive the s2k when it's this hot...what about you guys?

I don't commute with the S, but I'm not opposed to driving it top-down on a hot day like today

We have yet to cry "uncle" and put the top up on a hot day. The S isn't a commuter car, but we've taken many road trips on hot days. We do run the AC with the top down.

As a matter of fact, because it was going to be sunny and hot, Rick took the S to work today vs the WRX. He has a nice back roads commute to work. I'm off tomorrow and it will be hot. The S is mine tomorrow.

Haha I did top down 100f+ in Arizona almost on daily bases, just do A/C full blast and its awesome!



Downside is when I would do mountain runs in those temps, the transmission tunnel would get so hot my right leg would sweat like crazy and no A/C was able to help.
