Location is just a small portion of the problem. Many guys buy these cars thinking they will be user friendly like the family car but just a whole lot faster. Turns out the top is a pain to put up and with the side curtains installed the inside just got a whole lot smaller. There is no radio cause you can't hear one anyways and it's likely that your wife won't ride in the car due to the noise and stinky exhaust. With the top up in the rain the car still leaks water and you soon will feel like a fish in a fish bowl. If you don't drown from the rain it's likely that you will over power the car and find yourself in a ditch. You wanted honest and you got it here. Oh and it's a real pain to register one of these cars in many states now, I have been thru that drill !!! If you get hit or worse wreck your car look for a very long wait while you haggle with the insurance companies and try to get replacement parts.
How do I know all this stuff ?? I just sold my Superformance that I bought in 2000 and had just 5100 miles when it left my workshop. I bought a new Corvette to replace it and it's way more fun to drive and can be used as a dailey driver with no problems.
