Personally would be hesitant buying a supercharged car myself, I know the kits a reliable but I think it increases the likelihood that the car was pushed harder by previous owners (not that they aren't built to handle it). On the plus side, evidence of good maintenance and only two owners in 10+ years is great.

I can answer re: the hardtop - you'd expect this to be a weak point but apparently is not. You'll find surprisingly few reports online of serious problems in the 12 or so years they have been in existence. Most issues are easily fixed and result of user error or lack of basic maintenance. The 08 models I believe had a recall on the tension cables because the originals frayed over time. Might check to see that those were correctly replaced.
