I bought this car junior year of highschool and three years later I still love her. She's reliable but with that said there are some minor problems (what can you expect with a 24 year old car.) all my repairs could have been completely avoided if I would simply check the belts and hoses to make sure they look good. This car has been a perfect car for me especially considering my 300 mile a week commute with gas at $3.50. Its compact but im 6'2" and i am comfortable, back seat not so much. With the top down i can fit me, my girlfriend, and our surf boards so its a perfect ride for the beach. Would I buy another? In a heart beat. It's fun to work on and it's given me a chance to learn more about how autos operate. Jun 06, 2012

I love my Cabriolet! Great MPG, dependable, fun to drive and absolutely adorable! A real head turner that consistantly gets remarked, on. Parts are cheap if you put some time into the search for them. With routine maintenance, these cars seem to last forever! Sep 14, 2009

This car will work as long as you need it to. It may be a little out of date but it will never quit on you.May 28, 2008

bought one for my wife and this is probably the best purchase we have made. She drives this car rain or shine. Few minor problems but nothing major. Has rust and I am finding it hard to find a trunk lid to replace the rusty one on the car. also slight leak at doors when raining hard. Other than that it is a real head turner, people are always commenting on the cute car
