I have half-doors, which are awesome and I love them, but when it pours out I get wet... Never from the middle though... Oh that's probably a jinx.

Mine leaks from the middle like you described, and from above the doors. It's a pain in the ass but I just deal with it. It was the main reason I ripped out the carpet, raptor lined the inside and bought trek armor seat covers.

So it basically held you hostage so you would spend more money.

My 2008 never leaked until right around the 5 year mark the door corners started to. I replaced the foam on the door surrounds with weatherstripping and the problem was solved. Never leaked along the windshield, especially not the center. Now my 2013 is having an issue...

So I got my first JK 2 weekends ago. It's a 2008 but new to me and i love it!! 3 days later took the top down. Seemed easy enough putting it backup too. Then it rained like crazy till the next morning... As i got in to head for work, noticed my entire console was saturated and I could see a fast drip-drop coming from the center front part of the roof - literally dead center between the 2 front latches. Now I don't mind a lil rain but it didn't seem right so I took it in to be looked at. Verdict is still out but any tips/suggestions on what could cause that? Is there a broken seal or something where that long plastic gray bar meets the cloth roof? Or did I just put the dang top up wrong, which to me seemed idiot proof?
