I'm doing good with my cabriolet so far. I've put maybe $700 in it since it fell into my hands in'09. Next major service will be the top hydraulics (looking at $400 to have all 8 rebuilt, and maybe $50 for hydraulic fluid). I will need new tires probably this time next year and rear brake discs for the fun of it.

If I had extra money I'd go over the front end, new shocks and lowering springs all around too.
