Thumbs up Tarmac Black Evo's in Hot climates.

Does anybody have a problem with thier TB Evo in a very hot state? I'm in florida but I don't really feel like having an EB but I'm not sure if I will get an MR. So the only other color I'd really want is TB. But I think the TB might get way to freakin hot in Florida. What do you guys think?
I will also have leather!!!!!!!

If you have anything to help me make my decision please let me know!


Please I'd appreciate not having any posts about peoples experiences with any other color but Tarmac Black.
Thanks

Aren't you allowed to have 99.9% tints in FL? You're set then.

Dad has a Black S2k here, it used to have Leather seats, it was never that bad, and the Evo's a/c is a lot nicer, and there's always tint. At worst get some of those front window screen things and some towels to put over the seats... but that's AT WORST

No I don't got leather, I don't like them as much as the cloth seats.

Been there! Except I had a black Eclipse with leather and no working A/C! Holy crap that was horrible...

If you go with the TB with leather, DEFINITELY get your windows tinted. 20% should be good, and make sure your A/C works at all times!
