Time flies -- this is a thread I started in 2007 and contains the C-BEST info mrblister is referring to:

If you want to drive with the top down and the a/c off, turn the a/c way down and then turn it off. See if that doesn't help. There is a C-best setting to turn that "feature" off but I don't know if that really helps. Other thing to try is to make sure that the a/c is on recirculate. (If it is already on recirculate, try switching it over to fresh air.)

Good luck.
