    I see one major problem right off. THE TOP IS UP!! But, I'm sure you'll do something about that.
    Topless motoring is the best motoring. :Thumbsup:

    Personally I have an 05 and 07. Had very little problem with either but the 05 seems to be more reliable 130K miles only tires and battery and rear brake pads at 74K and replace front pads and rotors at 117K and 117K also replaced crank pulley.
