Hello all of my fellow Sky Roadster supporters. YES...my SKY that was lost for 11 days was found and she is now with ME!!
FIRST IMPRESSIONS 200 MILES:
LIKE:
-Looks, looks, looks. Did I happen to mention “looks?”
-Hugs road & corners very well
-Crisp tight steering
-Cockpit like seating--SNUG (don’t plan on doing ANYTHING other than driving)
-Supportive, hold your body in seats
-Leather done nicely
-Climate control, very easy to understand & operate
-Rubber strips on the metal pedals, really helps foot from slipping off
-Digital readouts showing fuel consumption, outside temp, etc.
-Standard radio/CD/Speakers sound fine to me
-LARGE wheels & tires
-Smooth ride...suprised at how the car absorbs more bumps then my SUV
-LOOKS...she is SEXY!!!
DISLIKES:
-Exterior color mismatch. Painted plastic parts vs. painted metal parts radically different shades of yellow
-Blind spots--serious limited vision when driving (large rearview mirror, thick front windshield surround, short Tommy-gun side window, Aero ferrings & Buttresses)
-No place to clip sunglass/eyeglass holder, cell phone
-Speedometer, difficult to determine 45 & 55 MPH at a glance (only dashes, not numbered) & difficult to read with my prescription sunglasses.
-Major wind turbulence with top down. Much more than expected. Don’t think even the KappaShield will block enough to keep the hair looking fixed.
WATCH OUT FOR
-Long hood, much longer then expected when viewed from the drivers seat.
-Any clothing put in trunk that sheds such as a fleece, WILL get fibers on your top if it touches.
Hope you like the pics!!!
