my last car was a Miata with many mods.
I was intent on never owning another tin top as my daily driver,
and neither would I ever own a car with more than two seats.
Excellent handling was a must along with low weight.
There were really very few choices honestly, the S2000 before the torque increase wasn't really appealing anymore (although bang for the buck its tops).
The Lotus is just ridiculus expensive for a 1.8 toyota engine. The TT convertible and Nissan Z violate my rule of "retrofitted" roadsters. The (3 liter I think) Z4 was interesting but resale value had me concerned with so many mixed reactions. Sadly not a single US car in the bunch.

Carrera GT no contest.....but that waiting list??? forget it!!
(btw, Carrera GT weighs as much as a Boxster...sick!)

my Boxster musts
1. S (need that 3.2 engine note)
2. Less than 15,000 miles
3. Silver with Red interior, would've of settled for yellow but I REALLY didn't want to deal with a black interior again, yellow and red..mmmmm.
4. manual trans (no compromise)
