Well, it does in fact have a heater - or at least controls for a heater. It does move air, but it's not very warm. Given the condition of the car, I'd guess that it was never warm. It could be a heater core issue, blocked coolant somewhere, or even air in the lines. But, the engine temp stays solid, so it's probably just shitty.
Either way, you have a fair point. 'Snot like I'll be driving it in the winter. I have cars with actual good heaters that work nicely.
Especially for the convertibles. I used to have a '68 Pontiac Tempest convertible and that thing did not put out much heat in the passenger compartment either
I suspect it'll improve if the roof is up, but the roof is a pretty thin material in this thing. I kinda doubt that I'll ever put the roof up for anything other than to test it and make sure I know how to do it if it rains. Come to think of it, I'm not actually sure how to put it up. I did ask if the mechanics had tested it. They said they had. I never asked how to actually do it. It's a manually operated top, so it can't be that hard.
You're not going to be putting that one up or down at 30mph like you can in some of your other cars, that's for sure
