Any known issues with 2001 or 2002 Roadsters?

Sorry, I am being a bit annoying, but I want to make sure when my black beauty goes away, I will have just as big of smile when I pick up a roadster!

Thanks crew!!!

You're in luck... none! Tires never wear out and they have bottomless fuel tanks. Perfect cars!

Hehe, joking!

I think the usual timing belt, clusters, etc.

Must have missed it, when are you getting rid of the TTC and getting a TTR?

Love my 2001

Plus, you can get the EFU from TechData and have all the gauges you'll ever need at your fingertips.

Have you driven a roadster? >>

I can say that the roadster is nowhere near as stiff and "tight" as the coupe. When going over uneven pavement or train tracks, your can feel the entire car twist, which I haven't experienced in a coupe.

Also, if you get an aftermarket exhaust, be prepared for it to be louder than the coupe.

Am I dissatisfied with the roadster? No, but these are things you notice after 5.5 years of ownership.
