my '99 has been my daily driver since I bought it, never a problem. Even the 6spMN is fun in Atlanta traffic.

We bought our '04 Vert in May and my wife drives it every day. Have about 6000 miles on it now and absolutely no problems. weather in Florida is about to cool off enough now to put the top down all fall & winter.
