"A dream to drive!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Roto top motors failed at around 55000 miles.

Door lights failed within a few months of purchase.

Seals around the convertible roto top were in poor condition when purchased so we had them completely replaced.

The battery failed at around 60000 miles. Replaced battery, but are now having some trouble with the alternator.

Several plastic vents for the air conditioner broke. Easily replaced and not pricey.

General comments?

This car is really fast and you feel it when you step on the accelerator. We've hit close to 90mph in second gear!

Car seats and interior are tight. "Back seats" are really for show. We did manage to cram our teenagers into them, but with a lot of complaints about no leg space, etc.

The paint job is superb!

Tire rims are hard to find. Have stockpiled some because we had one rim get hit and found out that no one has anything like it on the general market. They are truly custom-made.

ROTO TOP MOTORS>>>ATTENTION ALL OWNERS!

The roto top motors are housed in a plastic well which will fill with water causing ultimate failure of the electric motors.

A small drain hole drilled at the bottom of the plastic wells will solve this problem easily.
