Re: Best Allante to buy?

G.A.R.Y.

I have to admit that 92s can be expensive as well, other than the Bosch III. Namely, the first edition strikers for the softtop are too wide. Softtops have a tendency to fly back at 70mph with a passing semi. GM apparently learned of this fault and provided free strikers of a narrower rail as of 1999. If you are running around with first edition strikers in your 90.5 to 93, you might run into an expensive softtop repair or damaged trunk lid if your not careful. I was lucky and none of my car body was hurt. However, my softtop doesn't fold in the boot well anymore. Looks like it may have to be removed for a temporary solution. In the meantime, I have the second version strikers on order. Having the wrong strikers is nothing to fool around about. I made it two years without them and now I'm paying the price.
