 Allow me to start by saying I bought mine used. I have always loved the S197 model with its call back to the 60s. This was my first convertible. I live 30 miles from the coast here in Texas. This car is perfect. With 305 hp, this pretty girl will get me on and off the freeway with no worries. You can feel the power from the Solid Rear Axle. At 70 mph,  if you need to pass, then give it gas. It still pulls with muscle. Mine is sterling gray, so named her Storm because she looks like a storm on the horizon. (Plus,Storm is a stripper name and she takes her top down) I had an issue with her going to limp mode after I got her. Took Lee in under the 90 Day dealership warranty. Turns out she had a bad molded lead frame (the computer brain and sensor panel for the transmission. I paid $60 dollars on a $1200 dollar job. Being a used car, I say that’s more than fair. Now she runs beautifully and is perfect for driving the back roads down to the coast with the top down. With a little mood music or a good playlist it turns a commute to a mini vacation.
