I am happy with the interior of the car, body style with the exception of the blind spot. Can fit 4 people, back seat is a little rough with the top down. Must use Premium fuel. This is my first sports(type)car and I am happy with it and have had it over a year now. Great in the snow so far too!! All leather and 6 disc stereo with controls on the steering wheel, make it about all I want. (though seat warmers would be nice) Even has a Trunk that fits the family groceries.

I BOUGHT ONE 6 MONTHS AGO...The review asks what shoppers should know about this car.? Well if you are considering buying a spyder...!!! Do it.. kicking car that is top notch racer... pedal to the metal. No more to be said. Parts are cheap and car is easy to work on. I feel blessed. We say this car stays in the family. replacing parts are easy, I'm at 160 + and haven't had to replace anything. This car is badddd!!!! They won't make a car like this again, I got mine at $2000 blue book because a small 1x2 unnoticeable slightly paint difference patch on hood. no big deal...with no motor / issues which is amazing, I am on here only to tell good people go go go! This is ticket to good car. Every review talks about the dash board being cracked.... whatever? Mine isn't thank God, but big deal.. the car rocks in every other aspect. It's the nicest car I've ever had at40 yrs old now and get compliments every day. If u like driving fast. I do. It's a contender with all new vehicle out there. And sounds like a jet landing when the motor slows down/ trans shifts. VByea people. no joke.

When I first purchased this vehicle it was an absolute treat. Lots of fun, fast, and easy on the eyes. I have to warn you, if you are going to be driving a lot, stay away! I am now in the process of selling it, but it spends more time in the shop than on the market. In the last 2 months it been in the shop 6 times to the tune of 4000 dollars in repairs. I've had to replace the engine (no warranty) and now the computer is all over the place, turning off components such as the AC as it pleases. The car is awful in extreme heat! AC kills all horsepower. The top no longer works electrically. Just awful. If you plan on only putting only 5k a year in miles, then maybe buy it

This is the most incredible car I have ever owned. It has met all of my expectations and more. It is just pure driving pleasure. Mechanically it is sound.

After comparing many convertibles, we settled on a 2003 Spyder Convertible (auto) for several reasons, the highest on the list being headroom as I am 6' 4" and found virtually all other comparisons left much to be desired in roominess department. Although it did not have the horsepower of some of those vehicles we looked at, it had the best combination of features and came in less than 30k which we had agreed to stay under. We just got back from a Florida driving trip (1600 miles RT) and were very pleased with how un- cramped and un-tired we were after an 8 hour drive.
