"Good while young- doesn't age gracefully unless you want to pay $$$$"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission troubles after 200,000 miles
engine caught on fire at 140,000 miles
motor for the convertible top started dying at 155,000 miles
oil leaks after 130,000 miles

General comments?
When she was newer she was wonderful.
NOT good in the rain unless you want to spin.
She thought she was a race car- I just couldn't get her to slow down! lots of speeding tickets!
