Default Broiled head with the soft top?

Hey everyone i just bought my s2k with out even test driving one. I found a good deal and shipped the car. Well i am around 6.2 and the heat from the soft top is grilling the top of my head. When i put my hand near the top it is pretty hot. I live in florida and it is just now starting to get hot. How do you tall guys deal with it? Special insulation? Also my knees are almost next to the dash board and when i got back into my civic it felt like a big suv with all the room in it......

lol...just wait until your head gets burnt the first few times you take it out with the top down in the sun...aloe vera was my friend last year.

hardtop has better insulation, you can get aftermarket seats that work with the stock 3pt seat belts and will allow you to sit further back and at an angle.
