I'm currently reliving all my old gen 1 quirks!
Tail light and front turn signal condensation, marks on the tops of the windows from where the rubber sits, hood fluttering, hunting/bouncing idle, dash starting to come up in that one spot by the middle right vent, slave cylinder oozing, etc. What else am I forgetting?

Sometimes it has felt slightly difficult to get the shifter into second when the car is cold, but I'd say only like 5% of the time. Otherwise it feels like buttah sliding into any gear.

Yeah at like 75-80+ on the freeway the hood gets some air under it and starts moving slightly up and down. I remember it happening on my old one too.
Dash is lifting EVER so slightly in that one known spot, hardly noticeable whatsoever.
