T-tops leak.

General comments?
This car is very quick and responsive. It is a great everyday driver, as well as "hell on wheels" at the track. Handles very well in questionable weather conditions. It is a little on the expensive side to fix however well worth the pay out. I constantly get compliments on it's superb condition.
