Everything that is mentioned above, plus my 2 cents:
I like the hardtop because:
- I think it looks much better than a soft top up (though no top is ALWAYS better).
- I find the car cooler on hot days, warmer on cool days
- It's like having two cars in one: take the hard top off; it's a roadster! Put the hard top on, it's a coupe! Each has its own personality and feel.
- Long trips are more comfortable. I can carry a conversation without shouting.
I dislike it because:
- Added weight
- Unless you really have dedicated space in your garage, storing it can be irritating.
My car came with a soft top but no hardtop. For 12 years I drove topless. In those 12 years, I folded/unfolded the soft top maybe a handful of times. I ended up removing it from the car and it was either stored at home, or in the up position. I thought, If I don't use a softtop as it was intended, just get a hardtop!
1) I'm topless right now!
2) why are you wondering about me and my car? Stalker
