UPDATE EMAIL ADDRESS
I was hearing a dull clunking noise from the right rear area of the car when driving over bumpy roads with no musinc blasting. Read somewhere in the postings that it might be from the conv. top area. Well, while it was on the rack for my first oil change, I tool a look and started shaking parts under the right side. Found the right side parking brake cable banging against a part of the right suspension. It looks as if the cable was originally held in place by masking tape instead of being pushed through the hole in the mounting bracket. Since I was in a hurry, I had the dealer wire strap the cable from banging against the suspension part. It fixed the problem. Will have the dealer correctly fix the problem at a later time.
