Welcome,

Anything I will tell you is obviously going to be from a biased view but I will try my best to be reasonable.

Pros of the car in my opinion (subjective) and some fact:

-Style
-Handling
-Out of the box relatively quick
-Rare (not many on the road so you will be joining a special group)
-Probably the best bang for the buck you can get in terms of performance/looks/handling and the above for around 35K.

Cons-

-Sometimes having only two seats can be an issue
-If you daily drive than winter driving is a no no (unless you slap on some winter tires) even then I would recommend a beater.
-Oil temps, some get hot if you are planning to track oil cooler is a must.

That is mostly it, however, I have decided that the cons are not really cons because I have found solutions to most of them. Except for the extra seat part (but sometimes that helps more than it hurts, giving people rides you dont want to

)

So even after 1 + year of ownership I have to say I have no regrets, I love the car like the first day I laid eyes on it on the dealership floor and would not have picked anything else if I had to do it all over again!

PS: I probably forget other things but that's what stood out to me right now.
