A Fun Little Car That Works Great As A Commuter — Handling was by far the best aspect of the car, despite the fact its a convertible. Good engine with high revs and quick off the line. Decent stock sound system, I really enjoyed the seat intergrated speaker, especially with the top down. The only part of the body styling I didnt like was the nose. Far too 'cute' for my taste.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros: Gas mileage, Handling, Convertible

Cons: Cargo space

Superb Engineering — all you have to do is put the top down,and the smiles never stop,would love to get a new one but no need,this one was free!,if you get the chance to buy one reasonable,do it,you won't be sorry,I worked on this car for 10 yrs before it was given to me,never anything major,just normal maintenance,just goes to show mechanics,be nice to your customers,you never know what will happen!

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Pros: pretty much everything,not a cargo hauler of course!

Cons: too much fun?

Fun Ass Car To Take On The Track! — Performance - Acceleration- isn't the greatest, Braking - stops fairly quickly with stock brakes, Handling - AHH what its known for! They dont lie handling on this balanced car is insane with stock suspensions. Build quality - Needs a gaskets which is leaking from my front main seal but getting my motor soon. Appearance - Body is still good minor rust but pretty good for its year, needs new seats but other than that interior is good Cost of Ownership - Cheap! Fun Factor - you have to drive one!

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros: Handling!

Cons: nothing

Fantastic Sports Car Without All The Stuff They Put On Cars Now. Not Needed In A Sports Car. — At the time I owned this car I felt that it was the best sports car out there. Although it didn't have much power the combination of handling, braking and shifting made it a ball to drive. You could wail to the redline and not be breaking the law too much. Over 16 years it required nothing beyond the usual maintenance items. Its sole problems were a squeaky window and a rattle. Both were repaired in the first month. The structure was somewhat flexible but who cared. With a Borla exhaust the sound was wonderful and it made the radio unnecessary. If I had the room I would have kept it but it was time to move on.

Pros: Fun, fun and more

Cons: If you are interested in making repairs or mopping up oil spills avoid this car

Best Sports Convertible — On of the best cars ever made, still love it. Great drivers car, uses not a lot of fuel and top down in summer. Highly rated and for good reason. Cheaper to run than an MG, looks better and drives better.

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Pros: great drive

Cons: getting old

No Better Car For Your Dollar. — Perfect design for an inexpensive lightweight sportscar. Reliable, work on it yourself, ~30mpg, plenty of modifications available, and has a solid frame to make it into whatever type of car you want. Not the highest handling limits, but it is SO forgiving at the limits that you'll want to push it all the time. If you can't drive fast with 90hp, you can't drive fast with 900. Take down the top (2 seconds) and enjoy yourself.

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Pros: FUN, great handling.

Cons: small size makes this car a lifestyle choice to travel light.

Great Little Car... — Great little car that I bought from Jim Norman as a daily driver to save on gas. I get 28mpg with the supercharger which is a whole lot better than the Landcruiser's 12mpg. Also use it for track days. Very Fast.

Pros: Fast, fun, economical, easy to work on

Cons: None. It does what I want perfectly. I have other cars for my other needs.
