I never did get to drive with the top down. I tried 3 or 4 times to lower the top all with the same results, the top would retract into the trunk but the trunk would not close, there was no problem in raising the top. When the top raised the trunk would close automaticly. Would like to play with it a little today but can't. Yesterday in Eastern N.C. was sunny and 56degrees, today it's snowing and 28degrees. I'll have to wait and return to the dealer. Thanks for reply..
