"The best entry level sports car ever"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The battery had to be changed at about 100.000 Km for the first time. Keep in mind that it's a little bit expensive and unique to find.

Always keep an eye on the soft top and take good care of it otherwise you'll have problems.

General comments?

Great car with no problems at all. Handles like a real sports car and its fast enough, if you keep in mind that has only a 1.6 lit engine.

Certainly not "the best" in my opinion, especially comparing with the direct competition cars, mainly MR2 (both MK1 & MK2). Power definitely a let down, otherwise it is a fine sports car, but I personally found it a bit unexciting. Still it seems to appeal to many people, but would be good not to over-hype it.

I would agree that it is the best of this & the last generation of traditional (rag top)entry-level Sports Cars.

I loved the old MGs & Triumphs, but the MX5 Miata had it over them in the power & reliability departments.(The old MGBs & Triumphs did look real good though!)

The Solstice & Sky certainly have good looks, but are compromised as far as sports cars go.
