Default Windows down - Is it just me?

I'm turning off the A/C and rolling down the windows more these days.
Maybe it's the weather, the extra horsepower with the A/C off, or maybe it's the superlative LC sound. I don't know.
How about you other LC drivers?
Also, other drivers often wave me through 4-way stops before it's my turn. I think they want to get a better view of the car.
I've done this myself.

Nope not only you. I too am doing this very often even with the humid heat days we get in South Florida. But I don't turn off the AC, I would be sweating bullets. I guess people would think I'm crazy to be driving around in a brand new car with the windows rolled down.

I keep the windows up most of the time so I can maintain the "new car smell" as long as possible. I don't know how much of a difference it makes, but I'd like to keep it s long as possible

I keep the windows up when the car is in my garage to keep that mana new car fragrance.
I wonder whether I could maintain that aroma by replacing the floor mats once a year.
The Southern California weather is great this time of year and I miss my SC430 convertible.
Opening the windows and pulling back the sun roof shade is as close as I can get to that feeling.
I'm completely delighted with my Ultra White LC500.

I've always maintained that new car smell (leather smell anyway) by using this as my leather surface conditioner.
