HEY! Welcome.
Check your oil often, read your owner's manual, follow the break-in instructions, OH and ................ check your oil often. Don't drive too aggressively in the wet, keep track of your tire pressures or it'll come around and bite ya.
And check your oil often.
Don't even attempt to drive with the SO2's in any kind of snow. GET SNOW TIRES!
And check your oil often.

Welcome aboard, GT -

Another Spa Yeller! I saw a Spa driving up highway 99 yesterday; gave them the and off we went.

Agree with the above, and want to add a note about the visibility when the top is up. (I know, I know - the top goes up?) Anyway, you may want to invest in a Muz left side convex mirror, or in two small convex mirrors to stick on each of them instead.

Also, check your secret compartment. There may be a surprise in there.
