a very fun car. my biggest beef is the cheapo vinyl paint on certain interior parts. the engine is solid, handles well, comfortable on long trip and very stable at high speeds. make sure everything works, especially the most important thing, the top. run her up to 80 or more, check for vibrations. the acceleration should be strong when you kick in the supercharger (kompressor). it all should be as smooth as silk.. check brakes. look for leaks after you drive her and I love mine.
