Well first of all it is 3 colors, actually 4 colors if you include my top. Now after that I just got a new convertible top 2 years ago, and gues what its already ripping. My trans just went even though i already got it replaced, but this frigin car is costing me so much money and time. Now i have to bring it back to the place to get the top re done, even though i might be getting a black one now instead of my old tan one. Then i also have to get my car painted black to. So who knows it might turn out better but it just sucks as of now.

Mine runs perfect.




J/K .... but if a car never has a maintenence issue, there will be no sentimental value. Every wrench turned on my car makes it that much tougher to even contemplate selling it.

BTW, ALL cars will have maintenence issues!

Tranny woes

My tranny was rebuilt in Feb 06, installed March 06. crapped out Apr 06. The solenoid pack is sticking, darn thing bench tests fine, and will work when put back in for 10 miles or so and then dies again. Something to do with heat transfer or so I'm told. Only problem the darn replacment part is on back order!
