Agreed.
My dd is an '11 Ridgeline. The fit-and-finish has declined since my '06, but no service problems and it takes a royal beating.

I'm treating this Camaro with TLC , but I know she's going to clobber me when I least expect it.

It'll be hard to find another 45th 'vert. They're out there still, so maybe you can hunt, but you might have the same issues.
to be honest, i LOVE my 45th vert, i doubt i would find another ss 6spd thou... if i found one built after 03/12 id take another chance... but i tell ya this loaner vert i got isnt all that bad for an automatic v6.. built 04/12, top is perfect w/6k miles on it, and with it in "S" sport mode shift i dont mind driving it, and averaging 20mpg beating on it HAHA. theres a 2lt 45th vert in the showroom now where my car is, i didnt look to check its production date thou. can u imagine if i downgraded from a 2010 ss/rs coupe to a 2012 ss 45th vert, and ended up in a 2lt automatic????

me personally I would never in my life buy a convertible. For this exact reason
you cant expect a fabric top to seal like a hard top and still be flexible, it isnt going to happen.
