If you want something big, like dual roll bars, limited slip diff, get it now. A heater and bun warmers sound good.

Wife and I went out Sunday in her 4,825 mile 2002 Thunderbird to buy 93 ethanol free fuel. We had top down, windows down and A/C on. Air temp was > 90. We would have died in my Backdraft.

The point of this rant is that you can enjoy your car more. A driving school might be ok with 4 point harness, but instructor will want a roll bar, too. A friend thought my car needed power steering for auto cross (He does this in a Miata.) I think I would skip this part.

I bought my car from Jay, sight unseen. My only regret is that I did not buy it sooner and it is too hot in Arkansas in August.

Get the car!
