Anyone Go Topless Yet?
I actually did a couple weeks ago for the first time this year. 2nd time this weekend. Didn't bother washing her, just wanted to drive.

Yep, last week we had a 65 degree mostly sunny day. Top came down. Today though, it was more like 50... but it was sooo sunny. There must have been some people driving around saying, "geez what an idiot!"
had to do it....

I'm driving my '74 to Key West, FL tomorrow and plan on taking the Targa top off as soon as I reach temps in the 50's, which should be near Atlanta, GA. It's going to be a 3300 mile roadtrip and I can't wait!

Yes, V8_ranch and I have the same weather
 Took the top off Friday, did have to turn the heat on during the drive home in the evening. But this morning it was 32, so it will probably go back on.Jay

Yes sir, yesterday was the first topless day this year. It was more wonderful than I ever remembered.

Took a nice long ride yesterday, thought about it but left it on. It was good enough just to get out and blow the carbon out.

My top was off all last week, and looks like it will stay off next week too.
Just got back from burning through 1/2 tank tank of gas (sorry Al Gore) with the top off in the Hill Country just for grins.

Bought my 85 Targa on Superbowl Sunday. I've since driven it twice with the top off. The weather in NJ has not cooperated too much lately, but Damn I love this car!
