But how is it as a daily driver?

It can be fun, but it can also be a bitch in stop and go traffic (same with any manual though).


Is it noisy with the top up at highway speeds?

There is noise, but I'm sure the 'Stang is not whisper quiet either.

Is it drivable in the snow?

Yes, with snow tires!

Is the lack of torque at low r.p.m.'s a nuisance?

Actually, this doesn't bother me at all.

Any input will be most appreciated!

The car gets pretty decent mileage on the highway. It's not all about speed, it's also a lot of fun to just cruise with the top down. The car heats up way faster than any other car out there too!

G/L on your search!

Couldn't agree with this more! haha. Swapping in and out of a few cars the past days makes me miss the heater in my baby. Before i'm down the street to the lights in the S i'm already feeling the warmth :thumbup:
