Pros:

- Handle pretty decent in stock form and with a good spring/shock combo along with bigger swaybars they'll handle very nicely
- The ergonomics are fantastic. It has a true sports car feel when it's more of a "muscle" car. Your ass is on the floor and if you put your arm on the armrest the shifter is perfectly level with your hand

Cons:
- The stock 10 bolt can break on stock tires. I beat mine up with no problems, but they're ticking time bombs
- They're heavy, but they've never been light. I mean if you're just driving it around the weight is fine.
- Some people complain about the long windshield. I never had a problem.

I'm trying to think of others, but I can't right now. I tried to think of any problems I had with mine and I never had any. The prices fluctuate like a son of a bitch. Don't hop on one right way. Definitely shop around. It's gonna be hard to find a stock one.

Good luck.
thanks for the info. I'm going to be patient on finding a good one. I'm going to take my time. Enjoy my POS car and when i find the right one I'll see what I'll do.
