I have an 05 srt roadster. The wind noise has never been a problem and defectors are available for around $ 50 but have never felt the need to buy one. The top is a warranty item but I haven't had any problem with it. If fact I have never had any problems, the only thing I do is normal service work. Tires are somewhat expensive but when you have a car that is capable of over 150 mph you want a good set of rubber under you. My other car is a 96 840ci BMW and if I had to choose then I think the Bemmer would be finding a new home. The car you are looking at is a pleasure to drive and has what I think is proven German (mercedes/benz) engineering. Enjoy and forget about the small stuff. I've lived in Florida and it will be a fun car for there.

. . . fighting the urge to go over 100 mph. I've had my '06 coupe since October and twice on the highway home from work I've hit the century mark. What a smooth powerful ride!!!
(p.s. - one speeding ticket also, but thank goodness, it was 52 in a 35 zone)

The fastest I ever hit was 135. But since I first hit that, I've done it a few times between Orlando and Tampa and between Jacksonville and Daytona on I-95. Gotta love those long straights.

Have you try to push it at 150mph for a short distance. Let me know how the ride it. The fastest I try is around 130mph and it is smooth with the top down but, little windy...

I did, but I had it for 2 years and by chatting about it, makes me feel like I still have it. I REALLY miss it big time.
