Re: Before buyin questions

I bought my first vert back in July. Make sure the top operates smoothly with no binding. Check the seals all the way around and look for curling around the edges. Personally, I don't worry about the heat/cold because I don't drive it with the top up! Verts were made for feeling the wind in your hair.

Check the floors for rust under the rear seat bottoms.
Check the header plastic covers above the windshield and the front of the top.
Check the attachment of the rear spoiler center section, and the underside of the trunklid.
