Sometimes after hundreds of miles top down, or in heavy rain and such, I could dig that! Being able to hear the music better on occasion of top up driving AND there's the whole security thing! I never lock my soft top but all of us have heard the horror stories of stupid criminals who cut the soft top open w/o even trying to open the door! Leaving ANYTHING in the interior of my car (trunk included because that IS NOT secure in any way) is purely a leap of faith in humanity. So far, humanity has not disappointed me on this (if no other) issue! I'd like to feel that my luggage in the trunk (camera and radar detector and such) really IS secure. To me, that's no small part of the equation. Chris 99BBB |

I really like how all 3 generations of Miata look with a hardtop in place, but I will never deal with attaching and removing one unless I am in a place that receives significant snow and then it would stay on for months at a time. That said, I can completely understand why someone would want the ragtop instead of the PRHT. It just seems to be my preference to have the optional hardtop that goes with me. No question that the NC ragtop is awesome, and I think that Mazda should have done that top-down style by the 2nd generation model, with the outer portion always facing the sun and rain and no boot.
