When I was younger we had a summer place on lake Michigan, I actually had blisters sometimes from being on the hot sand after playing for a while.

Honestly, I have a lot of fun with the Z in the rain. It allows me to loosen up the tires a lot more without wearing them out much :tup: :driving:

:roflpuke2:

Just having the option to put the top down on nice days is just awesome, this is my first convertible, and Im telling ya, i dont think I'll ever go back to a hard top car in the future.

I take it you haven't encountered any problems with the roof mechanism? I have several friends with convertibles who swear they will never get another one. But they've all had leaks and mechanical failures that would turn anyone off of a convertible. The Texas sun gets pretty hot here most of the year, but convertibles in the winter are awesome here.

Nope, never had any issues with the roof mechanism. I am however very pre maintenance savy, so i keep it clean and oil down the mechanism to keep it working without issue.
