I don't drive anything but convertibles. I would say at least 2/3 of the year, my top is down.

There is nothing better than hitting the one-way canyon roads through the Malibu mountains down to the PCH in a 6 SPEED RWD ROADSTER.

Nothing.

I have had convertibles ranging from a 73 Cougar to a Saleen Speedster to a Mustang Cobra to an Eclipse and the ZR is definitely my favorite.

yeah, I just upgraded my dd to a 97 convertible eclipse. It's too hot in TX for the day but there's nothing like driving a convertible at night. Before, buying a zr was not an option. Now.. I'm not so sure

lol this was a tough one...if I didn't see it hanging one day in another z I wouldn't have noticed it.

If you look(or run your hand) under the rear strut brace it will be right there. Its hidden pretty well, because no one ever really sticks there heads in there to look around lol.

UY is the best color (behind SS) that you can purchase a Z in.

Thanks, I did not know about that.

Mine was glued up in the little hole it sits in.

Enjoy it...and take this forum lightly, its pretty stupid. I too really like the Z's powerband. Taken for granted until your driving something else haha. Timeless styling indeed. I plan to keep the Z for a long time.

PS: Best kept secret is in the coupe' under the carpeting in the glove box... maybe the zr has it too?
