Default Hardtop owners: Do you get more looks with your ht on or more with it off?

Just was wondering how others preceived the car with the ht on. Since I put the top on last week some people look like the trying to break their neck to get a look. I personally think the S looks better with the top on, but enjoy it more with the top off.

I've got to agree with you guys. I do get more looks with the top on. Also, I prefer to drive with the Hard-top on than with the soft-top.

On since most people around here are used to seeing the car with the top down. The hardtop totally changes the look of the car, making those who are familiar seeing the car take a second glance.

Try with the hard top and a full compliment of Rick's Badges. I get people waving me down asking "what kind of car is this". Usually my first response is "IT'S A SPORTS CAR". I had one idiot think it was the new BMW.

I think my car is skewed towards more looks with the top down because of the full-red interior. Of course, it's harder to gauge other people's reactions with the hard top on (less visibility), so I could be mistaken...
