Congratulations. Its seldom I see enthusiasts like you who plan on keeping their cars forever. I meant that as a compliment. We need more of you in this board

Great story. If you bought the car in Santa Barbara, you probably paid about 10 grand too much, but it's all good!
I was camping in Carpinteria a few months ago, and I'm trying to picture my wife if I had gone out for a bike ride and come back with a Targa...

You are about right but the story is worth the extra $10K (more like $3K).
Here is my proof. This is when I drove it back to the campsite and is exactly how I was dressed when I bought the car. Only one very desperate salesman took me seriously (he got the sale). The camper in the background is my idea of "camping" at El Capitan.
