Message I agree that there is some cowl shake and a different flex than a fixed roof car, and that the car handles differently. But it is predictable and completely safe (even at much higher than factory power levels).

That said, I do agree that the overall experience can be unnerving for some. I think because of all the other sensory drama with the top down. When I first bought mine, I was living in Houston, and I must admit that I was very freaked out by 6 lanes of traffic moving at 75 miles an hour with the top down for the first bit.

All that said, I do understand where you are coming from - in my experience people generally like or hate convertibles in general (regardless of the brand)
