Hey guys, yesterday it rained here in Miami and I thought with my hardtop it should be fine. Today I get into my car and theres a puddle of water right where the pedals are. Do you guys have an idea of where it could be coming from? I did not see my top leaking or anything
 
For me the cowl, leaks a bit.
But where the hard top, windshield and door all meet leaks pretty hard when it rains
 
You need to examine up under the dash board looking for dampness and rust.
Suggest you remove the cowl and examine the ventilation air intake area, seams for rust and separation.
To remove the cowl you first remove the windshield wiper arms (slide keeper outward and lift arm), remove the screw in the center where the ventilation grill is mounted and then the hood to firewall seal, two screws behind the seal and the other four screws. The cowl should lift out. Do a thorough inspection and clean any trapped debris laying inside.
Inspect the door seals to ensure they are still pliable and no separations are present.
