Actually, back in the day I loved to drive my Roadster year around. Took it
skiing every weekend in Idaho. Now I am spoiled by new cars. And actually
agree with you - I would love to build a V8 Z for nasty days for that added

- rained over 10 inches this month.
Like some here - I don't even put a top on my Roadster. I like'm topless
and in the sun! Ahh, Roadsters too...
