Welcome to the forum. Great color combo and options. I particularly like the wheels and the heritage package (stripes and "Grand Sport" headrests).

I don’t normally like the look of a convertible but the one you picked is exactly what I would go with. Congratulations! Happy modding.

Buy you a windrestrictor and you will like cruising with the top down better.I have a 2012 GS convertible I had a windrestrictor installed and it makes a difference of how much wind will not come into the car with the top down
