 I have the v6 convertable with 5 speed 
in blue/black top/leather interior.
No mechanical failures with car. No 
data on 5 speed aside from my own-no 
problems, notchy,occ missed shift. 
Insurence is expencive, a new Corvet 
would only be $7.50 more per month, an 
RX 8 would be $2.50 less per month.
  The v6 with 5 speed is about as 
quick as the v8 with automatic, and 
provides enough performance to satisfy 
most people who want v8 power.
  The convertable top is excellent-
shows no wear after 4 years of taking 
it up and down daily in the blazing 
Arizona sun.
To sum it up- a bargain used 
performance car that is dependable and 
fun, but expencive to insure.
