Default 2013 soft top help

If I have a 2013 soft top with the new spring assist, does that mean I have the premium top? or do all 2013 tops have spring assist?

I could be wrong, but I thought the only difference between the regular soft top and the premium was the material it was made out of. The regular top is more of a canvas and the premium is more of a twill cloth.

All tops have the spring assist. The premium top feels soft almost like a velvet, and standard is like the denim feel.

Standard top is better for off road. I put a little Formula 303 on it every once in a while, and it cleans up real easy.

Premium top seems to clean up pretty good. I've never left mud on for any length of time (pressure-wash and clean the Jeep as soon as I get home from the trails), so I can't really comment on what happens if you do.
