New 87 Cabriolet owner

Have you done so much to the car today that it just doesn't fit into one section, or are you too damn lazy to split it all up? Either way, this is the section for you.

Ours busy and prone to vibration. A little over 100K miles it runs strong.
Being one of the last of the baby boomers. I saw alot of early Cabriolets on the road and could not afford one, when they were new and newish.
My children said it felt tight on the expressway. I am looking forward to bringing it up closer to spec.

Always something....
On mine, after some, ahem, "spirited" driving, they got bad enough that the exhaust would hit the bottom of the car when I coasted in gear.
