Ah, you're skiddish for a good reason! That would suck and make me freaked out as well.
The longer you own the car, and the more you learn about it will yeild a lot of relief from this feeling. I've owned mine for 2 years and I'm not freaked out about anything that might happen to it now, even the dreaded RMS.
Of course, the long, long list of stuff I've repaired and replaced has given me this sense of security, so it's a combination of things I guess.
Go for a drive with the top down and the tunes up and it should pass!
