Well, its that time of year again, its hott outside... I didn't drive my porsche much last summer as I was gone anyways, heres my question

How do you keep the inside temp cool? I remember somone cooking an egg in the back of their toofah last summer as a joke besides tinting my windows what shall I do?

ps:
if tim tinted his new black 944 with like one way black glass, that would actualy be a really cool 944.

My AC works. Not enough, though! My windows are not tinted. My interior is black carpet. I now have custom-fitted sunshades for the windshield and side windows (doors). Still not enough.

I've noticed that being able to drive with the sunroof open on the 924S really helps cool it off (also black interior, no tint, no functioning AC yet) while driving.

I think I'll have to relent and have my windows tinted, like it or not.

When it's hot, I don't drive; I like the skin on my back!

Where I am you know its hot cos:
You get hot water from both taps.
Bitumen/asphalt has a liquid state.
The best parking spot is in the shade.
The seat belt buckle becomes a branding iron.
Shorts and vinyl car seats dont mix well.
