Didn't buy it, could have lived with the vinyl top (on a third car) but it was showing wear (otherwise pristine). It looked as though it was never properly cared for, which didn't bode well for the rest of the car. Loved the ride and features for the money, but it was a glaring flaw. I will keep...

I am going to go drive it tomorrow, we will see...

Thanks for the Quick responses. Other than the rim trade does anyone know about long term maintenance and what it will cost? V6 vs. V8 specifically. I do all minor work (everything short of engine rebuild, which I have done in the past) myself. If all I have to worry about is the difference in...
