I must admit that the talk about the trans scares me some. I took a test drive when they came to Pittsburgh and I thought it was funky too, mostly from a start. Our test drive was only around a couple of city blocks, not really enough to get much of a feel for the thing.
I ordered mine (all black cabrio, w/comfort pkg...or whatever they call it) on 6 April and did the confirmation thing about 3 weeks ago. I figure that as rare as it seems they will be the first year, if I don't like the car, I will probably be able to sell it and loose very little in the transaction or possibly even make a few dollars??
