 Purchased a 2001 Red/black Spyder in 
the summer of 2003.  It's not for 
everyone, but if you're single with no 
kids, this is the car for you. It 
handles flawlessly, can be parked 
anywhere, and leaves every other car in 
the dust. I used to travel by plane, 
but now I refuse to fly anywhere within 
a 3-state radius.  The only problem I 
have encountered is excessive tire 
wear - and I'm not sure I can blame the 
car for that. I'm embarrased to admit I 
smile everytime I see my car. Just to 
balance my glowing review: my brother 
is 6'2" and refuses to drive my car 
anywhere.  He thinks it is terribly 
uncomfortable, totally impractical, and 
hates the non-stop attention it 
receives.   To each his/her own.
