[Healeys] Hardtop vs Soft Top

I have a capesport hardtop.

If you're comparing the hardtop to the soft-top (in "up" position), I would
say the hardtop is cooler....just the fact that it's painted white makes a
difference.   Also, the hardtop's fiberglass does not retain the heat
whereas the vinyl soft-top does.

I have a BJ8 so I use the sidevent windows to keep the air flowing....I also
have the Works hardtop vent which makes a significant difference.

                   I was questionning myself concerning the difference  
in the habitacle 's temp. when the exterior weather is above 30C or  
90F between  the hardtop top or  the soft top installed

Which configuration do you think will be less warm considering no side  
screen install ?
