As far as driving dynamics, I liked the low, wide stance - the lack of seat bolsters was my gripe. Worth a test drive, imo.
You obviously never sat in the passenger seat. No, the top is not close to as easy to use as most other convertible tops, unless you mean TR-3 or Stutz Bearcat. Trunk is tiny compared to a Miata, which is saying something.

Low wide stance is not what I am talking about when I refer to driving dynamics. It felt bigger and heavier than it was. Steering feel was not very good. Good power and brakes though.
